Witnesses' Det-s of SSgt Jensen's Actions
From: Patricia
Jensen (daughter)
Subject: Re: SSgt Jensen, Da Nang, July 1, 1965.
My dad is buried at Oak Grove Cemetery in Detriot Lakes MN. I think the plot is S21. He is in the area where there are no headstones. He has a Silver Star on a stake that says veteran on it. When you are facing the cemetery at the main gate he to the left, the section is almost to the farthest side, towards the front. Please let me know if there are any grave sites here in southern Oregon that I could visit. I will try to scan the photo and send it to you, I will need my son to help.
