 Married to Jean both great friends of Col. William F and Metta Courtright and William P. Courtright who they embraced as the son they never had.As their adopted son and behalf of my father and mother who have also passed, John and Jean are deeply missed "William (Bill) Courtright 2019).John never spoke of his service as few Medal recipients ever do he did what was expected and was very humble in his acknowledgement of it seeing those who fought and died beside him more deserving.
