<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nWe lost another one of those three-war, two-star, CIB recipients recently. Command Sergeant Major Felipe Trujillo Roybal<\/a>, 82d Airborne in WWII, jumping in Normandy, a Korean War veteran and Special Forces in Vietnam, made his final jump off into that great unknown March 22d in William Beaumont Army Medical Center in El Paso. CSM Roybal served from 1937 to 1972, a truly historic three and a half decades of American military history encompassing three of the four major wars that American troops served in during the 20th Century. I\u2019m sure the Sergeant Major could have written one hell of a book.<\/p>\n We are losing these WWII veterans at an increasing rate and I would remind those who read here that if they know of a WWII vet who is capable of travel, you should bust your butt to see that they get to see their beautiful and wonderful memorial in Washington D.C. if at all possible. I took my father-in-law a couple of months after it opened and it was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life which I wrote about here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
