Raymond, there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you and the sacrifice you made for our great Country. As a fellow veteran and Great Bridge, VA boy, may God Bless you and all those valiant young people who had their lives cut short in the service of this Nation. I miss you man! Lawrence Taylor.
I was his platoon leader and next to him on his last patrol. He was a fine individual just trying to do the right thing for his men. I remember him each memorial day and every March 31st. Dick Reis.
