I was in Viet Nam the same time as Roger. Although he was in the Army and I was in the Air Force, I ran into him at the BX in Siagon. I always wondered about him. I was wounded in 1972, but I got to come home. Visit the wall if you get a chance, our generation gave up a lot.

Whenever I go to Washington DC I always visit the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and three of my buddies whose names are immortalized there. Roger is the first of my classmates that I know of to have lost his life in that war and it will be an honor and a privilege to visit him at the Irving Veteran Memorial.
Rest in peace PFC Davenport and know you are not forgotten
