US FLAG Robert "Brownie" Popovich passed away January 12th, 2002
Dear Sandy,

I was glad to see my father's name, Robert "Brownie" Popovich, listed on your website. I want to learn about his tour...the things he never told me. The things I never asked him. I served 4 years in the Army and I regret not talking military with him.

I have pictures of my father in uniform which I will send for your website. Once I go through all the pictures and documents I will share what would be of interest.

Thanks for the wonderful job on the website.

Mary [Popovich] Baskerville
