21 Jan 2004 REMEMBERED

 

A Note from The Virtual Wall Veterans' groups across the country frequently "adopt" servicemen who died in service. Sometimes the "adoptees" are home-town men, sometimes not ... but regardless of the connection between the group and the "adoptee" the reason remains constant: Those of us who came home feel an obligation to remember and honor our comrades-in-arms who did not. The Arrant-Smith Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4127 in Homestead, Florida, has "adopted" four people - three servicemen and one civilian medical missionary: LCDR Ralph Campion Bisz, USN, Attack Squadron 163 Shot down 04 Aug 1967, North Vietnam. Died in captivity; body not recovered. Miami, Florida MAJ Dennis Paul Neal, Army, 5th SF Group, MACV-SOG Missing in Action, Laos, 31 July 1969; body not recovered. Tarpon Springs, Florida On The Virtual Wall Pvt Dennis Clark Knutson, USMC, M CO, 3RD BN, 9TH MARINES Died of injuries received, 24 July 1966; body recovered.
