The family of Duncan Conrad Reed has invited the PGR to help honor their father for his service to our country and we are proud to do so.

Duncan Conrad Reed served as a Journalist with the US Navy aboard the USS Coral Sea during its tour off the coast of Vietnam between 1963 and 1966.

After his active duty, Duncan continued working as a commercial artist while also enjoying entomology and photography in his spare time.
