I had the honor of attending this ceremony for Captain Entrician. Unfortunately, Mrs. Kirkpatrick, his oldest sister, was unable to attend due to health issues, but I had the privilege of meeting the rest of his family. The family was grateful for the recognition given for Captain Entrician's sacrifice, but it was those of us in attendance who were indebted to them. The strength exhibited over their years of tribulation is immeasurable. Hopefully, someday, we can bring their Danny home to them once and for all. Until then, the Daniel Day Entrician VFW Post 2618 in Brookhaven, MS will always keep Captain Entrician in our hearts and minds. He is not forgotten.
