"His career as a soldier was marked with distinction. He was decorated for valor
two times while serving previous tours in Vietnam during which he was wounded twice. He is a friend and fellow policeman...always considered the needs of his men. He is a memory filled with respect for a man who unhesitatingly gave his life to aid his fellow policemen...." Part of the eulogy given by C apt. Hartless, 557th MP Company. |
