Hey Rick, Glenn here from produce at Hillmans. I remember how I couldn't wait to get into produce with you guys and out of bagging. Had a lot of fun with you guys and the occasional raids after closing on that locked liquor storage in the back room.

Also recall your blue GTO.

Just wanted to say hi, Rick. I went to the Vietnam Vets Memorial Parade in the city and tried to find your name on the moving wall but just way too many people. Thousands!!

By the way, after the First Infantry went home, I was not short enough so I was transferred to the 101st. I think of you often and if I ever make my way to the big Wall I'll drop off something from produce.

Better stop ... eyes blurring. Be well.

Glenn
