I didn't know you well in high school, but I heard you died in Vietnam. I marked it in my yearbook. In 1969, I was in college and did some antiwar protesting. I wish more men knew that many of us protesting were not communist sympathizers, but just classmates, your own age, who didn't want our friends to die. The Moving Wall came to my town, so I found your name. I'm sorry that you died so young. I appreciate the cause for which you gave your life in a way I could not understand when I was 21.
