THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Kevin Connolly,
Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. It is 2018, Happy New Year. It is so important for us all to acknowledge the sacrifices of those like you who answered our nation's call. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Kevin & I grew up together in Avon NJ
He was a great guy
Everyone loved Kevin
We honored him with a memorial in Avon
Thank you, Kevin

I served with you in the platoon. We were friends and talked much about family, friends and girl friends. I have never forgotten you and can still picture in my mind that jungle location where you lost your life in the ambush. RIP.

Thank you PFC Connolly for your leadership and exemplary courage under fire.

Dear PFC Kevin Thomas Connolly, sir

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, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir

Curt Carter
