My name is Harry Jagernauth of Florida. Vetterick and I served in the US Army at Camp Hovey 2nd ID Korea during 1973. For all these years I lost contact with my buddy. I was very sad when I heard he passed a few years back. To his family I would like to share my sincere sympathy. Vetterick as a soldier who served with me was an honorable man. He worked hard to get his Infantry badge, the only one in our company to receive the EIB. He and I had also had the priveledge to get a 14 days RR to Chejudo along with several soldiers for good behaviour. It's sad that for almost 47 yrs I was not able to contact him. May God bless his soul.
