I am writing this to those who served with my father in the 15th from 1957 to 1959.  My name is Brian Feeley, the oldest of four sons to the late Paul (Audie/Fur)Feeley.  I happened upon this page after looking up Don Wilcox who, along with many of you, were part of our childhood.  My father would tell us countless stories of his days in the army.  His memory of those times were passed down for us to cherish.  While my father served during peace time, he was quick to tell us that he did have to fight off the "German Babes."  (We doubt he put up much of a fight).  We still break out the pictures from time to time, but no photo reminds us of our father's stories more than the newsletters from Don Wilcox. As children, we couldn't wait for his next mailing.  Those newsletters had more meaning to us than any superhero comic of the day.  My dad would take hours, carefully sifting through the newsletter as three redheads and a dirty blonde sat around the kitchen table reading the pages he had completed. I'm sure many of your children can appreciate that.  I just wanted to add my thanks to all of you for your friendship with my father and especially to Don Wilcox for allowing us to be a part of it all these years.

 

To all of you who proudly served our country.....have a happy and heathy 2010.

Brian Feeley
