Pappy will forever live in our hearts....I met Greg "Pappy" Boyington when i was 24 at an airshow in fresno california.... He was just as Ornery as ever....Great man to know....
 
I was pleased to see that UW did eventually get a memorial in place for their medal of honor winners, which included Bruce Crandall. I met Crandall a couple years ago,when he wandered into our building looking for a copier.

You would remember Crandall by his callsign "SNAKE" from the battle for the Ia Drang, memorialized in the movie "We were Soldiers Once, and Young".
