For Chester Pudlo:

Chester, this year, for the 25th Anniversary of The Wall in Washington DC, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund is organizing an effort to read aloud, and in order, all of the names on The Wall over the four-day period before Veterans Day.

Veterans of the 119th Assault Helicopter Company are organizing to be present from Wednesday through Saturday to read all of the names of our own dead as they come up, from 1962 through 1970. We have not forgotten our friends, and we will be honored to read the names of the 119th crew and of the 4th Infantry troopers who died in the crash you survived.

Thank you for honoring and remembering our friends also."

Thanks again,
Bob K--
