The military says, ‘no man left behind.’ That’s why a Vietnam veteran is being laid to rest this week at the Beaufort National Cemetery and the invitation for attendance is open to literally anyone and everyone.

Wreaths Across America’s Beaufort chapter put out a call for volunteers to attend the service of a veteran who is being interred at our National Cemetery because he has no surviving family.

SPC Glenn R. Goff, III served in Vietnam with the U.S. Army.

He has no surviving family.

“This Tuesday, December 17, there will be a burial at Beaufort National Cemetery for an unclaimed veteran,” a release from Wreaths Across America said. “With no family of his own that could be found, we are asking our Wreaths Across America Beaufort family to join us in paying respect and be this Vietnam Veteran’s family.”

We’re very happy to see that the Beaufort chapter of Wreaths Across America joined with the Beaufort chapter of the Disabled American Veterans and stepped up to make sure this veteran is laid to rest with people there to honor his life and his service to our Country.

The services are planned for Tuesday, December 17th at 10am at the Beaufort National Cemetery, 1601 Boundary Street, Beaufort SC.

If you can spare an hour out of your day to attend and to help give this hero the love and respect he deserves, please do.
