LTC Rennie M. Cory, Jr. USA
Rennie was a member of Rolling Thunder, Inc. NC 1 as well as being in the active military. He was a friend, a comrade, and a brother in arms. To those of us who had the privilege and pleasure of spending time with him, he was a man of honor, duty and loyalty. He was proud of the work he was doing and asked many questions of those of us who had served in Vietnam. Rennie died in a helicopter crash 7 April 2001 along with 6 other Americans and 9 Vietnamese during a routine mission while preparing for a recovery operation involving unaccounted-for Americans lost during the Vietnam War. At the time, he was the commander, Detachment 2, Joint Task Force-Full Accounting.
Major Thomas
Malcolm Stanley, USA (retired)
Tom loved the wind in his face and the highway under his tires. Scoot or cage, Tom could always be counted on to be at the chapter's activities. Generally, the first to arrive and the last to leave. Quick with a hug and kiss, hearty handshake and a smile, he will be missed by all of us who knew and loved him. Tom passed away on December 18, 2004 after a hard fought battle with cancer. God's Speed Brother!!

Tom Stanley was a
retired Major in the U.S. Army having served 30 years and an active member
of Rolling Thunder. As a member of Rolling Thunder NC 1 he held the
offices of President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer. His
list of contributions to the cause of Prisoners Of War / Missing In Action
as well as veterans would fill volumes. Needless to say his spirit
and heart made him a great person to know and be around.
This
stone is located at the Airborne and Special Operations Museum in
Fayetteville, NC. It was placed there with much love from Tom's
Rolling Thunder brothers and sisters.
