THE WALL OF FACES

Sergeant Frederick John Follette, Served with the 116th Assault Helicopter Company, 269th Aviation Battalion, 12th Aviation Group, 1st Aviation Brigade, United States Army Vietnam.

Dear Sgt Frederick Follette,
Thank you for your service as a Flight Qualified Aircraft Maintenance Apprentice. It is now fall, and as the seasons pass, it is important to remember you 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.

I last saw Fred at a party in Boston Ma. He had just completed a 13 Month tour in Vietnam. He told us he was going back for a second tour of duty. Thank you for your ultimate sacrifice Fred. You are remembered by many of your friends from Braintree.

Dear SGT Frederick John Follette, sir

As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for the ultimate sacrifice that you 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. And please know that men and women like you have stepped forward to defend our country yet again, showing the same love for country and their fellow Americans that you did- you would be proud.

With respect, and the best salute that a civilian can muster for you.

Curt Carter

I remember Fred and my 6 other brother VietNam Vets on the Wall from Braintree. I ride to the wall every Memorial Day with Rolling Thunder to honor and keep your memory alive.
