Watson;; looking at your pic. I think I remember you. So damn long ago the mind just doesn't function to good. But you do remember Ken Ryan, Sgt. Brewer. Was it Lt. Anderson that was killed by a mortar round that hit near his foxhole? There is a pic. above ofa fellow that lost an eye at the Rapido river.Wonder what Company he was in. Sez he was in the 34th. I remember the combat engineers probing for mines there. Haven't e/mailed you in a while, all OK? I have been staying close inside since the wife passed away, it now has been a little over 2 years. Ketch me later dude !!! Rocky ----
