multiple fragmentation wounds to his right leg and upper thigh||From http://www.manchu.org/download/Manchu_Diary/1968.doc:
"PFC Robert R. White, Jr. (age 20; from Thomson, GA) died to today from multiple fragmentation wounds to his right leg and upper thigh. His tour of duty began 16-March-68, so Bob wasn't with us very long. Jim Baggett was stationed north around Tam Ky, with the 6th Battery 84th Field Artillery (155mm unit), when he received word of Bob's death and told to escort Bob's body back to their hometown of Thomson, GA. They were very close friends, who grew up together. Jim received one letter from Bob and they had made plans to try to meet-up. At the time of Bob's death, his hair was long and he supported a 'Manchu' mustache, so he must have been proud to be a Manchu Warrior. Kind of odd, both his grandfather and dad had also served in the 25th Division."
