DEAR SGT. ACHICA,

We are still celebrating our nation's birthday. In this time of celebration, it is important to remember those who gave their all for this nation.

Thank you for your service, and REST IN PEACE.

Thank you Sgt. Achica for your leadership and courage.

Dear SGT Eddie Achica, 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

His daughter, now 54, came to visit his birthplace in American Samoa and was touched to learn about his life, his family and the village where he grew up in and how he and her mother met. His ancestor were the first Filipino to live in American Samoa. He was a very striking young man who turned heads and will always be remembered by his family members. To all of his family members, he is our hero, including all the others who sacrificed their lives for this great nation we call America. God bless the U.S.A.
