THE WALL OF FACES

Private First Class Ronald Wayne Ashburn, Served with the 1st Platoon, Company L, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

DEAR PFC ASHBURN,
I REALLY HOPE YOUR PHOTO GETS PUT HERE. YOUR FACE IS NEEDED ON THIS WALL OF FACES.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS A MARINE GRUNT. I HATE THAT YOU DIED NEAR YOUR BIRTHDAY. SEMPER FI AND REST IN PEACE.

Dear PFC Ronald Wayne Ashburn, 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, Sir

Curt Carter

Semper Fi, Marine.

Ronald is buried at Harpeth Hills Cemetery, Nashville,TN.
