I did not know Bill. I felt I got to know him, from a book compiled by his brother Brad Frey, "Letters from 'Nam".

I was deeply moved by the letters Bill wrote to home during his time in the Nam. They were at once sad, sometimes optimistic and always longing for home.

Bill certainly did his duty as a Purple Heart and Silver Star showed. Even when he was short he wanted to go back to the field to be with his company.

The worst part is that he was killed in action only 37 days short. He had planned to be married on May 25, 1968.

I am sure he is deeply missed. I reread his lettters often. I wrote this because I feel he deserves to be on The Virtual Wall.
