Trying to find the following Veteran. Please
contact me
if you have any information on his whereabouts.
-
Roger Hoover
(70-71).
It is believed that Roger lived in Little Rock, Arkansas before going to
Vietnam and then in Charlotte, North Carolina afterwards as of 1976. His
parents lived in Nashville, Tennessee at that time.
One of our Kiwi mates is trying to find him as they were friends in
Vietnam.
It is not known what unit he was
in but we think he was in a logistics role. |
