Their story
Nobody has written Caryl's story yet. The VA recorded a name, a service, and a grave, and that is all this page holds. One memory from somebody who knew Caryl is enough to start.

Nothing here yet. A photograph of Caryl, a voice telling a story about him, or a short video all belong here more than in a box in a cupboard.
