I know him! He lives right here in La Quinta and is doing pretty well. Last year he had a bout with congestive heart failure, but seems to have recovered.

His wife and my mother are chums involved in DAR.

About three years ago, when they came out with the Mitch Paige G.I. Joe, I really had to scrounge to get one, but did and had him autograph the unopened box.

You oughtta see his study - it's literally a USMC museum!

If you ever get the chance, please tell Mr Paige there's a Nebraska lad who tells him thanks, and would be very honored to shake his hand someday.

Please tell him that there are many of us here in the northern panhandle of WV who admire him greatly and will never forget his courage and valor.
His cousin George lives here in our hometown.
