It’s still hard to conceive,” Wayne explained. “Bobby came by to tell me last night,” the Aggie twin said. “He heard about it on the news or read it in the paper.” The injured soldier is to be evacuated to the U.S. following surgery at Da Nang. He had been on ambush patrols with Company B, 1st Battalion, 46th Infantry, near Saigon. Mrs. Hillman said the govern ment may have tried to contact them, but the family had been waiting at a hospital where their daughter, Mrs. Keith Knipel, gave birth to a girl early Mon day. Wayne’s roommates read about the family’s delay in learning of Warren’s operation in a Tuesday newspaper. They were the first to tell the Aggie twin his sister’s baby arrived.
