Rich, it's been over 30 years now but you're still with the brothers who served with you in Dong Tam. We still manage to bring up your name in our conversations. Your passing has left an indelable mark on our souls and in our minds. We may never overcome the tragedy of that night as it effects our daily lives to this day. Until we meet again, we'll just keep marching on.

From a comrade-in-arms,
