The person that commented here asked "what was the reason that prompted you to go to Vietnam" My cousin ( US Army) was Drafted n had to go. He came back a different man with many flashbacks of killing many Vietnamese ( alot were very young boys) I'm sure there were some soldiers that wanted to serve in that war. My cousin was captured by some Vietnamese but was lucky to break away( they were high on drugs) n run to the jungle area hiding for over 2 week period n finally located some of our soldiers n got home after being there for over 2 years.

Theodore Roosevelt fought in World War I as well. He came ashore on D-Day with the 4th infantry division and then LED them inland which is where he got the Medal of Honor. He's was scheduled to be promoted to Major General and given his own division to command. Sadly he died of a heart attack the night before he was supposed to assume command of his division. If I recall correctly he had seen his son earlier that day they had sat and had dinner and talked.

@catheriam1945 : An interesting thing about both Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. and Henry Fonda. TR, Jr. was born in 1887 and died in 1944. That year he died would have been the year he celebrated his 57th birthday, but he died 2 months early. Henry Fonda was born in 1905. He played TR, Jr. in the movie The Longest Day which first appeared in theaters in 1962. That year Mr. Fonda turned 57 years old. Amazing coincidence or not.

When Quentin was shot down, the German Army gave him a full military burial as they had great respect for the great Ted Roosevelt. When the 4th Infantry Division landed at Utah beach, Ted Roosevelt was in the first wave. They landed one mile from the intended landing site. Roosevelt ordered all further waves land at his location saying “we will begin the war here”.

Theodore Jr. was a 56-year old Army General, and was part of the first wave of soldiers that stormed the beaches of Normandy. A month later he succumb to a heart attack and died.
