General Membership Dinner Sept 24, 2025

This weekend, I happened to be in Washington DC. I had a task to find a group of 3 men who were on the Korean War Memorial.
I found the photo and had it verified by CSM Bill Bill Jimenez. He was 18 years old and coming off the line. Was interviewed about the shortage of ammo.
He the one in the middle. I'm betting he's the only one alive who is shown on the wall.
