“I was very sad to learn of the passing of Chet. He was a beloved member of the 69th Infantry. He was the official photographer. It was a joy and blessing to know him. I enjoyed spending time with him at the reunion in Virginia Beach in 2017. He told me I was one of his favorites and that meant a lot to me. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Melinda Williams 69TH Infantry Next Generation Board Member”
