The database page for Claude Richard Van Andel

Another person I met when I first came into D Company was CLAUDE RICHARD VAN ANDEL. He was a very nice person, with a good sense of humor, whose life was very tragically ended by an NVA claymore mine at the begining of an ambush (firefight). His loss was greatly felt through out our Company, and with the rest of his friends and family. Now may he rest in Peace in golden light of eternal Love from now and forever more.

Your friend and comrade in arms
