Hi sir. I just wanted to say, Richard was my mother’s boyfriend when he died. I have his Purple Heart and the letters he wrote from Somalia to my mother.
If you knew him, I would love to hear your stories of him. If this was your only contact with him, post-mortem, thank you for this new story and new information.

Gruesome.

I graduated with Richard. I’m best friend with his fiancée. If you only knew the real story. It’s posted online… he knew he would die that day.
