RIP US Army Major Louis Almond. Bridgewater has lost a true legend. “LOUIS WAS A GIANT AMONG MEN” perfectly stated by my friend and fellow veteran Pete Northrup. That he was. He served in Vietnam and was awarded the Bronze Star for his service in combat. He was enlisted and attained the rank of Sergeant First Class before becoming an officer and attaining the rank of Major. He was a husband, a father, a grandfather, a VFW Comrade, and a friend. Louis was a character. He would light up a room. He was funny as hell. He had very strong beliefs. He was patriotic beyond measure. He respected all who served. He loved his family. He was a devoted lifetime (and now Legacy Member) of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2125. He was the Commander of the post several times and also served as trustee. He saw the post transform through generations of veterans from WW2, Korea, Vietnam, Gulf War and the Global War on Terror. He shared the utmost respect for all of us and we respected him in spades. He will be sorely missed. We love you Louis 🫡 🇺🇸 💕

His extraordinary story has been preserved in the book On the Wings of Valor: Missions of a Military Hero, created from his personal handwritten diaries and notes.

Hosted by David Moore at the Bridgewater Public Library, this interview is a heartfelt tribute to one man’s service, courage, and enduring family legacy.
