Florentino was a messenger of God, and "First to Die." Seven weeks before he lived it, he dreamed it. On that night in December 1967 he discribed it as his time to die. He said that he would be the first to die. Shot in the neck. Thank you, Florentino, for a death we will all remember long after that war is forgotten.........
