Fifty years gone today

Dear Daddy,
Whenever Larry or I dream of you, you look the same as when we last saw you and we both ask the same question: where have you been?
Fifty years of missing you.
Love,
Laurette and Larry

Remembering An American Hero
Posted on 10/17/14 - by Curt Carter ccarter02@earthlink.netDear SSGT Michael Rand, 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

The Wall of Faces
Brought to you by the organization that built The Wall, the Vietnam Veterans Virtual Memorial Wall is dedicated to honoring, remembering and sharing the legacies of all those who died in the Vietnam War. Here you can go beyond the names on The Wall to see the faces, share the stories and read the remembrances posted by friends, neighbors, classmates and family members.
All of these photos will be showcased in The Education Center at The Wall on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. To learn more about the effort to collect these photos and ensure their faces will never be forgotten, visit www.buildthecenter.org.
BUILD THE CENTER
We must never forget the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. There is no better time to honor their service. Help us build the Education Center at The Wall so their legacies are never forgotten.
The time is now
