Sadly, we have been requested to provide a Flag Line and escort for Ray Williams, WWII, US Army Air Corps.
Ray served in the 5th Air Corps in the Pacific Theatre of occupation from 1945-1947 reaching the rank of Sergeant and was a Radio Operator stationed in Japan. He received the following medals: WWII Victory Medal, The Asian-Pacific Campaign Medal, The American Campaign Medal, and The Good Conduct Medal.
Ray was a lifetime member of the American Legion, served as Post Commander #21 for 12 terms and was inducted in the CT American Legion Hall of Fame in 2017. He also served 4 years on the CT American Legion Executive Committee. Additionally, he was a lifetime member of AMVETS POST #45. Ray was also very involved and on the Executive Committee of the VJ Parade Committee.
One of Ray’s sons, Gary, is a PGR Ride Captain in NC and we are very sorry for your loss sir.
We will provide a Flag Line at the visitation, an escort to the cemetery and a Flag Line at the cemetery.
