Michael Lewis

Michael Lewis

Michael ( Shorty ..he was about 6'-0") Lewis was in CoB during '67-'68. He sat directly in front of me for many a day.
He was in the field most of his tour, but was 'rewarded' with the company clerks job for a time and that is where I got to know him.

I contacted Mike thru the locater in 2004 sometime. I asked if in fact it was he. And he answered "It's ME".
I was astonished to find he was only 50 miles from my home (Argyle, TX...near Dallas Ft. Worth)
and as we were going thru the email exchanges and trying to set up a time to meet and have lunch I sat down one morning to read the newspaper.
I got to the obituaries and there...right in front of me was a picture of Michael Lewis. I knew immediately from his bio my buddy was gone.

So long ago. So many miles. He, along with all of us, were so young.
