Many sincere condolences go out to Pete’s family and friends. He was an incredible part of a very special group of men in Vietnam, and is now being embraced by many of those same men who have joined him. He will not be forgotten…
I just learned of Pete’s death. I was in contact with him before he went to the VA Hospital and enjoyed our email conversations, He was in the 523rd Transportation Vietnam and escorted our convoys daily. I have pictures he sent me to put on our Photo Gallery at http://www.vietnam-guntrucks.com I usually bring them to the top of the page in December as a birthday wish. I am so sorry I failed to see his obit as I was having medical issues at the time. To his family, Pete was a good man and my war hero He will be missed.John Dodd http://www.vietnam-guntrucks.com
