"Dearest Angel" is the story of the life and death of Lieutenant John F. Cochrane who was killed in Vietnam on October 24, 1966. He was scheduled to meet his wife in Hawaii for R&R in six days, but his life was cut short by a sniper's bullet. President Lyndon Johnson read portions of John's last letter home to wounded Vietnam Veterans who were attending a Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at the White House. President Johnson said of John: "I have known many brave men and wise men, but I wish I had known Lt John Cochrane. Then I would have known the best of men." "Dearest Angel" is a book you'll want to read. Your life will be enriched and inspired as you share the deepest thoughts and feelings of one soldier taken from life too soon. by Elaine Cochrane Murphy (Paperback)
