We Remember







Sergeant Jerry Walker
Killed in the South Pacific
January 9, 1943
Age 19








"Did they beat the drum slowly, did they play the fife lowly?
Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down?
Did the bugles sound the last post in chorus?
Did the pipes play the Flowers o' the Forest?"
Gordon Bok -- "No Man's Land"
