THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Lt Jimmy Crisp,
Thank you for your service as a Rotary Wing Aviation Unit Commander (Helicopter Pilot.) 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.

Flew with jimmy many times on my gunship--440--of the 116th AHC. jimmy is in the dedication of the book I wrote--Xin Loi, Viet Nam

I was stationed at Ft. Belvoir, VA in 1969. I had just had lunch at DeWitt Army Hospital...I passed a hansome Lieutenant on the stairs and to my amazement realized it was Jimmy! Imagine being so far from home and meeting someone from Menard, Texas! We talked and made plans for dinner. We both brought friends. The special on the menu was "mountain oysters ". Of course we convinced our friends to order the special! We had a great laugh when Jimmy informed them of what they had eaten! Rest in peace friend.....thanks for your service and your ultimate sacrifice.

So many years,yet sometimes it does not seem long at all. I don"t see Kay or Alpha as much as I would like,we all still miss you. We are all getting older and will see you one day. God bless you, my friend. Connie McHorse Weant Menard,Tx

Dear 1LT Jimmy Wayne Crisp, 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
