Carl Peterson was a member of the Class of '68 at the Citadel. We remembered each of our fallen classmates at our 30th re-union at the Citadel in 1998. All will be remembered as friends and classmates.

Our lives are all much the better for having known and loved you. Rest in peace, dear friends. You will always be remembered.

This man I never knew,
Though his legacy runs true,
through his younger brothers eyes made to wonder truth,
My Father down into son.

I can not thank this man enough for the passion that he has instilled into his family to this day. Thank You, Uncle Carl.

Love,
