Received this, this week. And I want to add that John Fallon is still with us.

Hello all,
Holly and I send our best wishes out to the 36th Combat Engineers family.
We hope all is well.
I wanted share the attached photo that I received today from the American Legion Post 331 in Stone Harbor, NJ.
Holly, my brothers and I ordered the Memorial Pavers last fall for dad & Tony.
I don’t know who donated John’s, but I had tears in my eyes when I opened the photo and saw all three of them, side by side almost 75 years after first serving together and then being friends for the rest of their lives!
Dad would have been 100 and Tony 104 later this fall.
We miss them and all their former comrades in the 36th!
Thanks again from our family for taking such good care of them all during those last reunion years!
Stay Rugged!
Best Regards,
Ted & Holly Furtado
