REMEMBERING JOE MAGRI

You were missed, my friend. I've always remembered our chats, about home and future plans.

I took over Lieutenant Magri's platoon. It is reported that there were two "friendly fire" casualties that day. Actually there were three. PFC Roger A. Dixon is listed as KIA on 01-17-1969, but actually died of his wounds received in this incident on that date.
