Biography coming soon.
W C “Bill” Kyle, Jr was my father. He passed away in January of 1970 at the age of 44. I was so young and knew very little about his service. Now older with a son of my own serving, I want to know everything about him. We have very few pictures. If anyone has a story or picture of him I would love for you to share. He lived a short life but left a great legacy.
Thank you and God Bless Our Country.
