I didn't know Lt. Stefko. I did meet his wife Anita, son Billy, and mother-in-law Claire Milliard some years back. Such nice people and a great family. After hearing them speak about William I could almost get the feeling that I did know him...young, brave, caring, smart, a good man, and a great American.

Lt. Stefko was KIA by artillery fire in Binh Dinh Province, South Vietnam. He served with HHC, 4TH BN, 503RD INFANTRY, 173RD ABN BDE, USARV. His decorations include the Purple Heart, National Defense Medal, Vietnam Service Medal, Vietnam Campaign Medal, and the Combat Infantryman's badge.

His body was returned to the USA where he now rests in peace next to his parents and other family members in Holy Cross Cemetery, North Arlington, NJ.

LT.WILLIAM C STEFKO, Service # 152366906, is on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington, DC at Panel W14, Line 17.
