Billy,
I have been trying to get a photo for Wesley Grant for quite awhile. I just received a note from a guy who went to the Springville Cemetery and he states that Wesley is not in that cem. He stated that Wesley is African-American and there is another cem called Springville African-American Cem , adjecent to the other.that he could be in, with only 4 burials on the Findagrave site. He ran out of time to investigate, and does not live in the area. Anyhow, if you want to change the burial cemetery, I would then re-enter the request and we might have luck. Wesley is my only guy from Louisiana that I am still looking for. I am working the 1/8 Jumping Mustangs from the 1st Cav. Only have about 8 more to go of 397 guys. Billy, Thanks for all you do to remember the Vietnam era KIA's.
Sincerely,
Sue Rice
