Yep , it is Keith and as their children we are in the car right behind them on this train of life. In 2005 3/5 Cav. held a reunion at The Wall. I had tried to go up to The Wall twice before but failed and wasn't sure I could this time either. Three guys who were in my platoon were there also and saw me faltering. Bobby put his arm around me and said " come on LT lets go say hello to our brothers " and I finally made it to The Wall.Hello not goodbye. There were thousands of people there that were my age. Walked over to the WWII monument and there were thousands of people there but I only saw two older guys with tears in their eyes. Someday there will be only two old guys at The Wall with tears in their eyes
