Bob was a good friend and a fine soldier. If you were in trouble
you could count on him to be there to cover your back or help
you out. That's what he was doing when he died covering my back while
I was trying to get to a wounded buddy. I wish he were here today so
I could buy him a beer cause he really liked to drink beer. I
would also like to contact members of his family if they are
interested. I have access to several pictures taken during our time
together. I know he was married and that his wife was pregnant, but
he died before the baby was born.

The point-of-contact for this memorial is
an Army buddy,
Dan Holstein
