14 Jul 2003 Photo courtesy of Jamie Perry REMEMBERED by his comrades in the 5th Infantry Ron's squad had headed out to an ambush location with 5 ARVN soldiers. On the way there they walked into an ambush (which we believe was set up by the 2 ARVN's walking point since we never found them, believing that they went over to the other side). Also killed that night was Randy Ellis and Fran Harter . Ron lived for 2 days after the ambush. Randy and Fran Died on Nov. 9, 1970, Ron died on the 11th. We were all in Co. B 1/5th Mech, 25th Infantry Div. November 9th 1970 was without a doubt the very worst day of my life and these three great people are to this day my heros. I will remember them always! Randy Kethcart Ronald J. Di Bartolomeo is buried in Crestview Memorial Gardens, just outside Grove City, Pennsylvania, beside his mother and father.
