Memorial booklet produced for the graveside service at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Buffalo, NY, on October 21, 2021 — the 50th anniversary of PFC Makowski's death. Contains a narrative account with tactical map of the October 21, 1971 engagement, a damaged photo of Blais and Makowski taken shortly before the mission, and Wolf Kutter's commemoration speech (separately documented as kutter-wolf-commemoration-makowski-20211021). Accounts drawn from firsthand recollections of Doug Hilts (Squad Leader) and Jean "Dizzy" Blais (RTO), both present on October 21, 1971.
