THE WALL OF FACES

Corporal Kenneth Francis Dupont, Served with Company C, 2nd Battalion, 47th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 9th Infantry Division, United States Army Vietnam.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

While I didn't know you very well I remember you in my bct platoon at Ft. Lewis, Wa. In early 1968. I remember we were just young kids soon to be men. You gave everything you had and tried your very best. I know that to this very day and I'll never ever forget you.

Dear Cpl Kenneth Dupont,
Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Independence Day is approaching, and we remember your sacrifice. We remember all you who gave their all. 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.

Dear CPL Kenneth Francis Dupont, 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
