SSGT Constantino Mataragas 1964 - 1965 (Photo as yet unavailable)
Larry Price writes: He
was our only medical source until Captain Grossman arrived...I helped
Sgt Mataragas hold down a guy who had partaken one too many adventures
with a local lady down the road in back of barracks...can't remember his
name.
 Robert Michon sent us this photo of a knife that he found tucked away in a closet of a home he purchased in 1996.
Mr. Michon contacted me expressing his desire to find the owner/owners of the knife in this photograph so that he could return it to them. After some years of searching he found Sister Zelie Marie Mataragas who directed him to the intended heirs of this blade.
I commend Mr. Michon
for his gracious act, and Sister Zelie Marie for her help and charity in this matter.
I selfishly count myself fortunate to have encountered people of this caliber.
