Bill, this is John Clingan. Remember me from high school? You graduated in '63, I was class of '62. I was at Cu Chi, 1966 with the 25th Inf Div. You gave your life in a worthy cause. We honor you, miss you, and love you and all of you on the Wall. You did nothing wrong. You were always smiling and friendly to everyone. Praise to you for your sacrifice. Welcome home, in Heaven. God Bless you, brother.
