Here are some comments so far from Facebook about SFC Frank Price

My memory of Sgt Price is from the Tan My dining hall. I remember his hot cinnamon rolls and I appreciated that he went 'above and beyond' to make them for us. He really cared, and he showed it through the foods he prepared every day. I really appreciated the extra work he did to make life better on Tan My island.

I remember we were at the end of the supply chain but the food was the best I ever had in an Army mess hall!
John Mackey
What I remember is that our flight line was always full of all different types of helicopters at chow time. Once a CH-54 came in and blew one of the little birds down the strip!
Michael Woods
Best SOS ever.
