Not sure what to say?

We'll miss you Uncle Frank, you'll forever be our hero.

I thought of Frank because November 21 was the 48th anniversary of the Son Tay Raid. Frank and I served together in Detachment A in Berlin in 1978 as well as in the late 80s. I am sorry I missed Franks passing as I was out of country and have been traveling, cruising on our sailboat, for the last 6 years. De Oppresso Libra! RIP

RIP

Served with Frank in 5th SF Group back in 76-78. An excellent NCO who set high standards and encouraged the rest of us. So long, Frank, see you on the next mission!

Thoughts and prayers go out to the family during this time of sorrow.

I remember Frank well. He was a fine soldier and an excellent warrior.

Frank was the model Special Forces trooper; profeassional, disciplined and passionate about his mission.

He will be greatly missed for the experience, wisdom and Chriastian charecter this generation of SF and Special Operations warriors could benefit from.

Frank and his family are in my prayers.

RIP Frank. D. O. L.

I salute your fallen veteran. My deepest condolences for your loss and gratitude for your loved one's service to our country.

RIP Uncle Frank, I look forward to saluting you in the future and dont worry you will always outrank me.
