Louie and I went through Medics training at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. He was a kind and gentle spirit who only wanted to help those in trouble. We came together again in September, 1966 in Vietnam. I was in A Company and he was in C Company. I will always remember him and always feel a great loss when I think of him. God Bless you, Louie.
