9 July 1970, 1000 hours. Gook claymore mine and ambush sprung. My very best friend and closest War Brother, Sgt Gregory A. Dodge KIA. I was on the QRF that went out and we fought over the bodies and brought them out. i have been in contsct with his survivng family and they left a quarter on his headstone at my request. Remembering you Dodger.

It is our DUTY to remember the fallen. Thank you for the ultimate sacrifice in my behalf, RIP
