Charles was one of three young men from the small, southern Oklahoma town of Maysville killed in Viet Nam. He was a 1962 graduate of Maysville High School and a 1967 graduate of the University of Oklahoma college of business. At the time of his death he was serving as an artillery officer. He left behind a wife, Jane, and an eight month old daughter, Barrie Kaye. You are remembered and we are so grateful for your sacrifice. May God bless and keep you. I would enjoy hearing from anyone who served with Charles.

From a Viet Nam vet and fellow Maysville H.S. graduate,

Please change his home town to Maysville, Oklahoma. His wife was living with relatives in Norman at the time of his death, but he lived and attended school in Maysville. He is a graduate of Maysville High School.
