Charles Jesse Uplinger- Just a random name.
But he wasn’t just a random man. He was a son, a husband, a brother and a friend and above all a Hero.
Born on 9 April 1917, Sherburn, Martin County, Minnesota
I never met him but yet unbeknownst to him he had an impact on my life, for he was one of the many who sacrificed his life so I didn’t have to.
His service number 37581838 are not just a set of characters but the identification of the 27 year old man who selflessly gave his life on October 2 1944.
Dear Sir I salute you and with the deepest respect do I bow my head to you.
