Remembrances:
Class Memorial Pages\M-1 Charlie Green.pdf
I offer my warmest regards and fond remembrances
of Charlie from cadet days, and possibly somewhat after graduation.
We didn't know each other well, but we did know each other, and my thoughts of
him were fond and respectful.
I wish his family only the best.
