Good friend and true American
Dale was in another class at Elgin High but I knew him from friends in South Elgin. I graduated in 1966 from Elgin and shortly afterwards went in the Marine Corps also serving in Viet Nam. I had not heard of Dale's death until I came home. He was always a good friend and would always go out of his way to help a friend. He was like so many of us then, we needed a direction and we found it in the services. God Bless you Dale and keep you safe.

Dale and were very good friends in boot camp, infantry training and advanced infantry training. I don't think I ever missed taking a liberty with him. We came home for a leave in November 1966. Dale and I went back to his high school. He was showing off his dress blues. He was the center of attraction. He loved it. What a great guy.

I was in Dale's high school graduating class. Although I knew him only casually I can still see him in my minds eye. I remember Dale as handsome and popular. I also served a tour of duty in Viet Nam. There is a song by the Eagles that contains the lyric, "I don't know why fortune smiles on some.and let's the rest go free." Gone now these 36 years. I still remember. And I'll never forget those who paid the ultimate price. We miss you, Dale.
