THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. How tragic that you were killed so shortly after getting married and arriving in Vietnam.

Airman First Class Paul Wayne Anthony, Served with the 6924th Security Squadron, 6925th Security Group, 7th Air Force.

Paul, I remember you so well. Your smile is still so alive in my memory. Thanks for being our friend in tech school and Key West. God’s speed, my friend.

A Viet Cong rocket attack on the Danang Airfield complex on 08 Apr 1970 killed two Americans:
A1C Paul W. Anthony of Charlotte, NC, and Sgt. Randall L. Pell of Wabash, IN. A1C Anthony is believed to be one of only two USAF Security Squadron staff to be killed in Vietnam. A1C Anthony was 20 years old and was married to Carol Ann Sanderson, an AF Sgt, for only 88 days when he was killed on his first night duty at Danang Air Base by an incoming rocket.

DEAR AIRMAN ANTHONY,
THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE. I DO NOT KNOW YOUR MOS, BUT YOU SERVED WHEN IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASIER NOT TO DO SO. REST IN PEACE.
