THE WALL OF FACES

I wore a POW/MIA bracelet all through junior high school with your name on it. In the early ‘90’s we took our elementary school daughters to the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington and talked about your service and left your bracelet there. I’ve never forgotten you. Thank you❤️

Major Finney is my brother-in-law. My husband and I are extremely humbled to read all the wonderful sentiments and remembrances each of you so kindly, reverently and lovingly submitted honoring our beloved Charles.
He was a true patriot, uniquely gifted, intelligent and talented in so many ways, but above all, he was loved, respected and admired by all who had the pleasure to have known him.
Thank you all so very much for loving him as we do, and for your love and support for our family. It means more than you can ever imagine.

Today I purchased your bracelet. Even after all these years there are people who remember you and are so thankful for your sacrifice. Rest in peace and know that you are never forgotten.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. I am heartened you returned home though I wish it had been under very different circumstances. May you rest in eternal peace.

Major Charles Elbert Finney, Served with Marine All-Weather Fighter Squadron 533 (VMA(AW)-533), Marine Aircraft Group 12 (MAG-12), 1st Marine Aircraft Wing (1st MAW), Third Marine Amphibious Force.
