Submitter: Charlotte Clouse
Gentlemen: I am a widow of Sgt. Jimmie Rocco Clouse. Rocco served in Vietnam (DaNang) and was wounded Aug. 1965. (Deceased Jan 1993). He was flying out of the ChuLai air strip as crewcheif with LT. Paul Bronson. I recently learned thru a book written by Otto Rehrack Titled" The First Battle "(Operation Starlite.) In reading this book I learned that Lt. Bronson was directly responsible for saving my husband life. According to the book he as awarded the Bronze Star for his action. My children and I so wish to contact this man so that we can express our sincere gratitude to him for giving me a husband of 29 years and my children a father. If anyone of you happen to know how I may contact this man kindly forward the information to me.
Thank you so very much,
