Memorial Day Slight

To the Editor: I had the distinct honor of delivering the keynote address at the Memorial Day services at Calvary Cemetery on Monday. After the ceremony, I was approached by two men who were visibly upset that I had overlooked mentioning their brother who was from Douglas and also killed in Vietnam. Needless to say, I was equally upset and concerned about my oversight. After the services, I went to the memorial in front of the police station and there are thirteen servicemen listed, not nine as I had thought. I was determined to find the reason for the discrepancy.
