I met Roy, he was a nice guy. He retired in the San Antonio area where Ft. Sam Houston, home of the Army Medical Department, is located and I was assigned as a SF medical instructor. The didactic phase (phase 1 of 3 medical phases) of SF medical training was there back then (now at Ft. Bragg as a satellite school) and Roy would be a guest speaker at student graduation ceremonies. It was great having an inspiration like him available and willing to address the students. He went through the trouble of wearing his dress uniform for them. He acknowledged the intensity of the training they had gone through even though it paled in comparison to his real world experiences. Roy is missed.
