It was my privilege to have been a friend of Ray Sypniewski along with his brothers Matthew, Carl, and his sister, Elaine. Ray was the first military casualty from Mercer County to make the ultimate sacrificeduring the early years of the Korean War. He was a gentleman as can be see by my article for Veterans' Day, 1989.
Ray was a clssmate of mine. I think of him quite often and always appreciate his supreme sacrifice for his sense of honor and duty. He was a true American!
