A former classmate of Boyd K. Newbold at Ben Lomond High School in Ogden posted a remembrance, as did a fellow Special Forces soldier who trained with Newbold. "I will never forget him, his wit, determination, skill and desire. Truly a Special Forces Soldier," wrote Jim Blanchard.

Newbold was just 21 when he died in Hua Nghia province of Vietnam in 1969.
