I send my deepest sympathy on the loss of Daniel Scherry I Was in 2053 with him on the island and had the privilage of becoming a fellow mortarman alongside him at SOI, even though we went to different units I still saw him occasionally and will always remember his great sense of humor and dedication to duty.
