This should be on the every news program. Don't ever forget the 58,000+ that died in that God Awful War. Thank you for giving up you life for this country
RIP CW2 Wann

Actually Moody after going to the service it was very healing to the family and all the 'Nam vets in attendance. Another amazing thing was (as reported by the Navy Commander who ran the service) his body wasn't descerated by the Vietnamese people. His bones were apparently all/mostly there.
