Rodney,
Donnie was my partner, Richard Dobratz's (Dob, Donuts, Rich, Rick..), best friend in C-3/21 Charlie Tigers. Richard was WIA on 11/5, one week after Donnie died, not expected to make it, but did (100% disability). Next week it will be 46 years... Richard has never forgotten his friend. Many years ago, he visited the Wall to find his name. We talk about Donnie often, especially on Oct 27th, and on Nov 5th, every year. We are glad to know that someone else does, too.

Hi there...I am the daughter of Vincent Rogalski and he served with Donnie too...my dad was 196th LIB 3/21 C Company. I have a picture that I think Donnie is in....at least my Dad (as far as he could remember) listed him off...with Jimmie Coulthard, Johnny Morton, David Fletcher and a few other. My dad was very good friends with Rodney Green who posted above. If you send me your email...I would be happy to send the photo and let you look at it and see if you remember any faces...it's a group shot
