    “Thanks for posting the list of those we lost; I was glad to have that and printed a copy. It is important that we remember them.
    I was wondering about the date for George Canamare and thinking maybe he died a later than that, since I remember I had known him for awhile when he was killed. Maybe August, 1969 was when he joined F Troop.
    Really appreciate all your posts to the website.”

    Doug, You are correct. According to the virtual wall records, George was KIA on February 8, 1969 in hostile action from small arms fire. He began his tour on August 31, 1968. I will correct the list. Sorry for the mistake.

    Thanks,
    Bill
