THE WALL OF FACES

Lieutenant Commander Alan Frederick Ashall, Served with Attack Squadron 85 (VA-85), Carrier Air Wing 6 (CVW-6), USS America, Task Force 77 (TF-77), 7th Fleet.

Alan was a good friend of our family. He was a gentle man, kind and had the greatest laugh. Thank you for your sacrifice, Alan. We will always remember you. The Martin Family, Billings, MT

Thank you for your service and your sacrifice. Thank you for stepping up and answering your country's call. Rest easy knowing you will never be forgotten.

DEAR LIEUTENANT COMMANDER ASHALL,
THANK YOU FOR BEING A NAVAL FLIGHT OFFICER - UNRESTRICTED LINE OFFICER OFF THE U.S.S. AMERICA. I READ YOU ARE STILL MISSING.
PLEASE COME HOME.

I also have worn and faithfully kept Alan Ashall's bracelet. It now rests on a branch of my patriotic tree. The Traveling Wall set up in Oscoda, MI and I went to see it especially to find Alan's name. I was so overjoyed to find it, and made a tracing of his name. I hope his family feels a measure of solace knowing that so many years later, Alan is still remembered with love and eternal gratitude.
