I was the Medic who worked on Captain Keats the day he got killed. I felt bad when he was killed, because the day before we had gotten in an argument during a softball game. Nothing big, just a funny argument over a pitch.

The Captain was shot in the head. Even though there was no chance of him surviving, I tried as best as I could to make him live. I only wish I could have. I truly wish I could have saved you, Captain.

If the ARVN's hadn't run away scared, you would still be alive today. Rest in peace, buddy. You will never be forgotten.
