30 Jul 2005 Terry, I think about you all the time. You were one of my best friends in Vietnam and I will never forget how you used to talk about Ohio and what you would do when you got back. I was the first to your side when you were hit and held you you like a baby even though I knew you were probably killed instantly. I carried your body to the helicopter and felt bad about having to put you on a pile of other dead Marines. I will always remember your quirky ways and that funny little mouth of yours. Our Company went up that hill the next day and I was hit several times, but I was lucky and came home. Semper Fi, my friend. From a friend and fellow Marine, Lance Campbell altalance@aol.com
