23 Mar 2007 Wolfe, you were the first soldier I met in the squad after arriving at FSB Jamie. You encouraged me and let me know that it would be OK! That night at Atkinson, the four of us did what we had to do. You, Di Santis, Di Gregorio and myself. A day does not go by that I do not think of the three of you. Thank you for being that "outstanding" soldier. God Bless! Sgt. Anthony J. Wallace, Retired wgloria10@aol.com
