These two men have by now been laid to rest at the Coastal Bend State Veterans Cemetery in Corpus Christi on November 10, 2016. Neither man had a next-of-kin or any known family so the community, via at least 2 local television stations, invited members of the community to honor their passing.
I unapologetically talk shit about Texas, but that the local media would support such a community response for 2 former servicemen moved me. It's hard for a lot of us to find our way after our military experiences, and this demonstration of support by the Corpus Christi community is noteworthy.
Fair winds and following seas to Clifford and to Dennis, and thank you, Corpus Christi.

A Reminder About My Other Blog
A quick reminder that - thankfully - I no longer post here so much, reserving this blog for Corpsmen who have lost their lives in the line of duty.
My primary blog is The Way I See It.
