    Rest in Peace James Smith - you and your fallen comrades will never be forgotten and I thank you for you service to the people of our country. My heart and prayers are for you and your family. Our family knows all to well what it means to pay the ultimate price. My daughter's husband now resides in Arlington. God bless and watch over all our military members.

    RIP Jim...20 years old, so sad. Vietnam was such a sorrow for everyone especially those that gave their lives. As the daughter of a WW2 Vet I have the utmost respect for our military. I just wish the people, countries, that start these wars would be the ones to fight it out instead of sending our best and youngest. Would probably be a lot less conflict. I used to have a daydream about Reagan and Gahdaffy dueling it out in a boxing ring...

    Ronnie would've won that one. Ghadaffi's syphillis would've interfered with his jab.
