Gone but not forgotten
I don't see a forum on this subject, but I believe we should remember the Quiet Professionals who made us what we are. So, if you know of someone who should be in this forum, post a picture. Preferably in uniform.
Do you remember this CSM? Many of you do. It's CSM Wallace "Wally" Klink. He is commemorated on the following web sites: <http://asomf.org/rollcall/search/details.php?Entrant_ID=2263>, <https://www.usarmyregistry.org/registry/search/default.asp> and <http://www.wwiimemorial.com/default.asp?page=registry.asp&subpage=search>

Another
Here is another, and some of you old 1950s 10th Group Bad Toelz guys may remember him. It's Maj. James “Jim” Martin. He is commemorated on the following web sites: <http://asomf.org/rollcall/search/details.php?Entrant_ID=2238>, <http://www.wwiimemorial.com/default.asp?page=registry.asp&subpage=search> and <https://www.usarmyregistry.org/registry/search/default.asp>.

Well I thought I could generate some interest in a forum like this, but I guess not.
I’ll add a few more just to give a push. Everyone should know these guys: Col. Fredrick 1st SSF, Col. Aaron Bank SF, Gen Yarborough SWC, Maj. Larry Thorne SF MIA/KIA. Gen. Yarborough, Col. Bank and Maj. Thorne have threads on this site commemorating them.

Most of us are well aware of our heritage and many of the faces you have posted have been subjects of discussion throughout this forum. Feel free to pick some one, or anyone, you want to commemorate and write it up. For me, I have so many names and faces of folks with whom I have served over the years that contributed a lot more to who I am than those with whom I have never served.

Most of these guys have their own threads here. In the three years we have been posting here, we didn't talk women, whiskey, and weapons on all of them.
If you want, you can look their names up with the Search button in the upper right hand corner and see what has been posted about them.

TR:
I did as you suggested and added a change in the wording of my reply #3 above.
