I met him several times in Korea while helping out with the 50th Anniversary commemorations here. Had coffee and donuts with him at the USFK Heritage Center- he was wearing his old WWII paratrooper jacket. And yes, when attending official functions, he is always resplendent in his Class As. His son the sculptor was there also. Both great human beings.

He was friends with Capt. Desiderio, who also commanded E Co 27th Inf- and was KIA- Medal of Honor, posthumously.
