This photo is of a 1st Battalion
5th Cavalry Memorial Service on December 10, 1966. The rifles are in the shape
of a cross. Many of the men in this photo are identified below. I have numbered
them in position and names are then keyed to the numbers. In front is the
Company Commander CPT Robert Lowry. I don't remember the name of the guidon
bearer. Positions are numbered from left to right and front to back:
