After all these years, you are not forgotten brother. I love and miss you and will never forget you and the loss of you as my brother. Thank you Doug for all the good times we shared. Thank you for being my big brother. I know you are with me today looking out for myself and my family. Thank you for serving our country with honor. Help me to heal from the wounds, I also received in Vietnam. Your death pushed me into the war, I am still at war in my mind today. May the battle be over for me and all our buddies who served our country during all the wars. Let there be peace for all of us, in our heart and minds. Thank you, Doug. I love you. Your brother, Hank.
