Just learned the Sad news about Doug.

I attended Army OCS with Doug in 1965-1966 and after graduation were shipped oversees together.

I considered Doug a very good friend during that time and With me being a proud Southerner and Doug being a "Die Hard" New Yorker, we had numerous good natured debates about the true outcome of the War between the States.

I still have some photos of Doug and his Corvair convertible.

Best wishes and Condolences to his...

While searching online for Doug, I found the obit notice from January of this year.
I am very saddened to hear of his passing. We were roommates at Wagner College in the sixties. We had a valued mutual relationship which I'll always remember. Many good times and solid memories of our youth. Best wishes and condolences to my friend Doug's family.
