I had seen your name on the WALL. I did not connect you with the Najar family from "el Valle". Today I learned that you were originally from Primera, TX. I knew your brother, Alex. We went to school together in Harlingen, Texas.

Your friend, Tomas Gonzalez, informed me that your family had moved to Palm Springs, California. He visited with you when he was in the Corps. He went up to Palm Springs to see you. After that visit, you joined the Marine Corps. Tomas served a tour of duty in Nam from Nov 66 to Nov 67. He is back in Primera now. Tomas told me that you were very proud and wanted to be a Marine. I wish I could have known that you were in Nam in '68. I was there for my second tour.

We from "el Valle" were few, but we served and fought with pride. Carnal, descansa en paz (Rest In Peace, my brother.) Semper Fi.

From a family friend,
