Thank you for your sacrifice in the service of our country. Rest in peace and may your loved ones find comfort in knowing that you are forever honored and remembered by your fellow countrymen whenever we stand and sing the words "...the land of the free and the home of the brave".

I remember Willie Critchfield, who was a LRRP with the First Cav. I was a Red Cross girl who got to know the LRRPs and admired their spirit and joy in life, and their bravery. I heard that Willie was killed during the Christmas "cease-fire" - it devastated the person who told me, one of his fellow LRRPs. Another young man gone. His parents should be proud, he was a fine young man.
