REMEMBERED ACROSS THE YEARS

I was at the airport today (May 17, 2007) at 6:05 am when the remains of Capt (Maj) Benjamin Danielson were escorted by his wife Mary and son Lt Cmdr Brian Danielson, USN from Hawaii to Minnesota, and then on down to Kenyon MN. I thought about those from my hometown, and considering that NASA sent your name into outer space on 2 micro chips, 1 of which made a return trip and landed in Utah in 2006, I thought about your presence on The Virtual Wall. All gave some, and some gave all.

I was a good boyhood friend of Henry's and served in the US Navy from 1966 to 1970. I never really found out what ever happened in Vietnam that caused his death and have been searching for answers for many years. If someone is out there who knew Henry C Polzin and/or served with him I would like to get together and talk. He was a great guy and I need some answers about his last days.

From a friend,
