George served in Mortars from August 1969-1970. We first met George and his wife Carolyn in 2007 at the 3rd Annual B Company Reunion in Branson, Missouri. George was a soft-spoken, true country gentleman. In 2009, at the Atlanta reunion, George and Carolyn reunited with Loren Winebrenner and Bill Joe Williams, a very special reunion for all three. ---------Garry and Kathy Root
