Sgt. Castle was wounded in the action of 14 October 1966 and flown home to Walter Reed Hospital, where he remained
 until his death on 2 July 1967.  Turk was enroute to visit him... hopefully to aid in his recovery... when he died.
After spending a few days at Fort Benning, Turk was returned to Vietnam.
What ever happened to Turk?
