For Second Lieutenant Bolger and all those who knew him and loved him, I just want to say thank you for your dedication and sacrifice! Please know that you have not been forgotten and always will hold a special place in my heart! It would have been nice to have known you as a person, and I greatly appreciate your service! I just wish you did not have to pay so high a price! You forever will be a hero in my eyes!

You Are Not Forgotten
Although I never met you, I did attend the same Cardinal Dougherty High School and wanted to let you know I appreciate the sacrifice that you made with your life for us. You're not just a statistic, you're part of our family and always will be.

Bolger ran like lightning. At Cardinal Dougherty High School, he ran the mile in 4:23 a good time for the early 1960s. Before graduating from St. Joseph's College in 1966, he led its cross country team to victory in the IC4A and Mid-Atlantic Conference Championships. Bolger enlisted in the Marine Platton Leader Corps in June 1966 and took officers training. He was sent to Vietnam, where the 23-year-old platoon commander was assigned to Company A of the 1st Battalion, 26th Marines, 3rd Marine Division. Bolger died on June 27, 1967 of wounds suffered in Khe Sahn, Quang Tri Province. Cardinal Dougherty High School sponsors the Bolger Run in his memory each year. Survivors included his parents, two brothers and three sisters. Larry lived on E. Wadsworth Avenue, in the Mount Airy section of Philadelphia. Source: Philadelphia Daily News

Remembering a Classmate at Dougherty
Ever since I first heard about Larrys sacrifice in the Philadelphia Daily News, I never forgot about him and his sacrifice. We were from different parishes, and were just casual classmates. I did sit next to him in Senior Year, and remember him as being a real fun loving guy, always ready with a quick joke, to past away the boredom in class. The country lost a great human being. I will never forget him.
