Richard A Mitchell
Sea Cliff , New Jersey

Died June 11th at the Battle of the Loc Ninh Plantation. Panel 08E-- Line 038.

Wish I had a better picture of him, I remember Richard was the only one in Recon that didn't wear a cover on his helmet, boy that helmet would shine, makes me laugh even today. Richard and I would sit up at night and plan what we would do when we got out of the Army. The night before he died we had some incoming rounds, Richard told me not to worry, we were Recon and not much could hurt us.
