Don't think it's an April Fool...it's been going round the web for awhile. All of us in the 1st Cav Division Association were aware of his loss in August. I recieved the same email from Catman last month, so people are just becoming aware of his passing and how it was not covered in the media. Topp just got it I guess and was wondering why he hadn't heard of this before. Guess it's just not news, especially in an election period.
Most people also don't know that the 1st Cav Officer on the cover of the book, "We Were Soldiers Once...." a picture taken by Joe Galloway during the battle, (There is a soldier charging with a bayonet), was head of security in the WTC and was killed when the towers fell. He had plenty of time to get out but would not go until he knew the building was empty. More stuff the media missed.
