FORT WORTH, Texas Charles Frank Pendleton was just 21 years old when he made the ultimate sacrifice for the United States, leaving his loved ones and new wife behind in 1953. I called him Charlie,” said Mary Margaret Snell, who married Cpl. Pendleton on Sept. 1, 1952.
It has been nearly 70 years since Snell saw her late husband for the last time before he was sent to fight in the Korean War. He told me when he left, he said, You know, if I am mortally injured I won’t be back. You know, I just didn’t think that was gonna happen of course, you know,” she recalled.
