    A package that starts to be worthy of what these men and women did for our world. Prose, photos, design — all stellar.

    Lindsey, please hug yourself, the shooter(s) and Mr. Charlier very vigorously for what you’ve done, and thank yourselves very much for me. The pocket-knives line … oh my lord. My beloved uncle was never without his pocket knife, either. He’s been gone two years as of Sept. 18.

    Signed,

    A very grateful niece of one of the best guys in the 238th Combat Engineers

None of the stories were ever told around town. Austin Shofner+Bataan-Google him.
