Clearing up some Mis-Information on GEN Creighton Williams ABRAMS Jr.

Dan Arnes

It has been said that GEN Creighton Williams ABRAMS Jr. who succeeded WESTMORLAND as head of the Military Assistance Command in Vietnam in 1968, was the Uncle of our KIA LT John Leon ABRAMS.

While searching and compiling a list of KIA Families for Mike Brinck, I spoke with John's sister, Ellen Abrams Blankenship and found that GEN Creighton Williams ABRAMS Jr. was not a relative of the family. She said there was an Uncle in the Army named Robert Leon Abrams, but Creighton is not related.

Just wanted to clear that up.
