Billy Cagle, HMM-165

Mike, Joe, I am sadened by this Marines Passing. HMM-165 was a Great Squadron because of the caliber of Men it had, as most all the others were as well. I would believe he was a man of Faith, and is in Gods presence now. That is comforting I hope to his Family. S/F.

Wild, glad Billy had a long Marrage, and drove UPS trucks for 33 years, and went back home after retirement, to his loving Family. Semper Fi.
