Lest we forget our true HEROS. Sgt Henry Smith was the first from my hometown to become a casualty of the Vietnam War. Sgt Smith left behind a daughter he never saw and a family that loved him. I on the other hand have known his daughter Susan Smith Eudy for many years. Susan is a wonderful person and a strong supporter of Vietnam Veterans. In closing I say to all "Remember Our True Heros Always" - freedom has never been Free. God Bless the Vietnam Vets.
