My Cousin
Julian I didn't get to meet you in this life. You were gone before I was born. I am your cousin David's youngest. I always heard your name talked about as I grew up. I didn't know the story of your passing until I read how you earned the Bronze star. Thank you for your dedication to our country and to our family. I imagine when your mom and dad made it to heaven they were overjoyed with seeing you again.
With Love and Admiration,
Your Little Cousin
Candyce

Final Mission of PFC Robert J. Davis Jr.
On August 7, 1967, PFC Davis distinguished himself while serving as a Rifleman in Company A, 1st Battalion, 35th Infantry. His platoon was on a combat patrol in an area of known enemy activity near La Van when it came across a trail leading through the dense vegetation. PFC Davis and several others were detached to provide security along the trail while a reconnaissance was made. As they progressed up the trail, the point man unintentionally entered a mine field and was wounded when he detonated an enemy anti-personnel mine. Disregarding the extreme danger and thinking only of the welfare of his comrade, PFC Davis ran forward into the mine field and picked-up the fallen man. As he carried the man back to safety, he also stepped on a mine and received serious wounds from the explosion. Both men were medically evacuated immediately, but PFC Davis succumbed to his wounds shortly thereafter, his unselfish and heroic action at the cost of his life is in keeping with the highest tradition of the military service and reflects great credit on himself, his unit, and the United States Army.

Remembering An American Hero
Dear PFC Robert Julian Davis Jr, 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
