Very sad news to find out that one of our brothers passed the way. I knew Doug while stationed in Stuttgart, Germany, we had some great experiences while working there that will never be forgotten. My condolences to the Dupre family. Hope you find peace during this awful and sad time.

We see you soon brother amd i can believe this happen to you, i will for you and your family. I will see you soon and love you brother. Valhalla

This is really heart breaking to find out. I knew Doug while stationed at Ft. Carson with 10th Group. He was a good person. We had some good times. My condolences go out to the Dupre family. Praying you find peace during this awful time.

Oh. Doug. I wish you knew how much we all loved and appreciated you and the sacrifices you made for us and our country. You were always the sweetest most beautiful little boy turned into a man that I ever knew. I´ve always loved you. You were so soft spoken and when you were talking about jeeps or motorcycles your face would light up like a little kid in a toy store. You knew so much about the mechanics of those jeeps and motorcycles. I only wish that would´ve been enough to keep your mind occupied. Rest easy now Doug we will carry on but your name and memories will never leave us. Please tell Uncle Rog and your other uncles and grandparents hi.
