THE WALL OF FACES

Never forgotten.

Semper Fi, Marine

On the remembrance of your 74th birthday, your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Semper Fi, Marine

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. As long as you are remembered you will never truly die.

Private First Class Glenn Wilson Apple, Served with Company L, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

I am unsure if we are actually related. I father was from Cincinnati Ohio and he was the last of the Apple’s I know. But when I got to the memorial and saw your name and that you were from Ohio I felt drawn to you. My dad was much younger than his sister, and his parents were much older so there’s a lot we don’t know about our family. But you were just two years older than my father and to lose you so tragically before you had a chance to actually have a life, is just so sad. So whether or not we are related please know that you so whether not we are related please know that will never be forgotten.

Rest in God’s grace.
