06 Jan 2002 George, you'll always be nineteen to me, a daring and brave pointman. We left LZ Mile High, just a few days apart. You died trying desperately to save your brothers from a deadly ambush. I survived my tour and for the last 34 years, I have wished to tell George's family how brave he was. George, may you rest in Peace, Cacti forever, "Soup" From his platoon-mate, Roger E.
