THE WALL OF FACES

Never forgotten.

HOOAH

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. You were born ten days before me. I am 73 and have lived a long and fulfilling life. It is tragic you never had that same opportunity. May you rest in eternal peace.

Thank you to those who shared their memories. In helping my 11-year-old son with a Veteran’s Day project, I unexpectedly found this page. You’ve helped me learn—and share—just how special Chris was. From my father’s family, I knew he was loved and deeply missed but I never pressed for more. Instead, I enjoyed them laughing about happy memories. Thank you again - I’m grateful for the opportunity to tell my children about their great uncle.

Dear Cpl Christopher Dellapina,
Thank you for your service as a Huey, UH-1 Helicopter Repairer with the 1st Cavalry. It has been too long, and it's about time 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.
