View all 6 ReflectionsThis man (LAG) was my Great Grandfather! Tonight I googled him on a whim. I’m so happy to see this write up of him and his service. His son (my grandpa who was 14 when his father was shot) and his grandson (my daddy) were both named after him. My Daddy was L A Green 111. I’m very appreciative of his strength and honor. He was a great man!
Thank you for remembering him!
