Bill was my squad leader and he is the reason I'm here today, he saved my life many of times. He took me under his wings and showed me the ropes when I was green. I will never forget him, I have a new family now because of him. I also owe him my rank, when he passed on, I had to take his place. I found out what an awesome job he had keeping us in line. He is in a better place now and I believe he's at rest even though he was taken young. I will never forget him and he will have a place in my heart. Airborne All the Way! |
