THE WALL OF FACES

My name is Krysteen Wescott and I am the daughter of Sgt 1st class Robert H Wescott Jr. I asked for your picture and your brother and sister supplied it to the site. Your friend Terry was also trying to help me. You are remembered.

I love Tommy with all my heart and soul. I am thinking of him, especially now, because the anniversary of his death is quickly approaching again. It seems like only yesterday we lost him to the Vietnam War. Our loss continues every day, as we have been without him far longer than we were blessed with his presence. Our lives as a family changed forever on the day Tommy died. Surely, we have missed out on all he had to give. Thank you, Satch, for reaching out to Ed and me. Thank you for sharing the photos and adventurous tale of the time you spent together while on R & R in Japan. Thank you, Mike and Jack, for loving Tommy. Your kind words are truly appreciated. He will never really be gone because he is alive in our hearts, still, and will be forever. I thank God to have my brother, Eddie (Cubby), in my life. He and I will always share a special bond and will never forget loving and losing our brother. Thank you for your service, Tommy. Untill we meet again..........

Tom, I always called you Andy after the actor Andy Devine. We had ourselves a ball whenever we could get away with it. I have always wondered where your final resting place was. Thanks to whomever put fishkill rural cemetery. I will someday find my way to fishkill rural cemetery and we can chat. I am not that skinny kid I was then. I think of you often and wish someday to hear from Tom's sister. [email protected] will find me. I still hold out hope of hearing from some of his family. Thanks Tom for your sacrifice!

Dear CPL Thomas Edward Devine, 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

Thomas is buried at Fishkill Rural Cemetery in Fishkill,NY. BSM AM
