Even as a young man, there was always a quiet dignity about Dick that inspired respect and confidence. He was always there to help his company comrades through the tough times.

Only knew him from pictures and stories as a young boy. I try to honor him by example and being a strong citizen and soldier. He is greatly missed.

We must never forget the price of freedom....
