Remembering An American Hero
Posted on 9/17/16 - by Curt Carter ccarter02@earthlink.netDear PFC Kevin Carroll Hanley, sirMORE
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.
With respect, Sir
Curt Carter

Dedicated To My Heroes
Posted on 5/29/14 - by Lawrence M CelaniMORE
The Shadows Of Heroes
Most of my life I walked in the sunshine.
Now I walk in the shadows of Heroes.
Those heroes in my life are now gone
yet their shadows still remain.
It is in their shadows I will walk.
Since they can no longer speak.
I will be their voice.
Although they can no longer see,
I will be their eyes.
While they can no longer cry,
I will shed their tears.
Since they are now defenseless,
I will be their defender.
I will forever keep a close vigil over their memories.
I will protect their legacy as if my own.
I am honored to walk in the shadows of my heroes
all the while feeling the warmth of their presence.

Kevin was one of two friends lost in that war. As I get older, the loss of these guys hurts more. The best was to express my love and dedication is to preserve their memory for the remainder of my life regardless of the pain I have to endure. It does not compair to the pain Kevin endured as he lay dying so far from his home. I miss you buddy. Through the grace of our God, until we meet once more in a place where there is no pain and no terror of war, jusat the peaceful silence of paradise. Happy 63rd birthday Kevin. Semoper Fi
