THE WALL OF FACES

Visited you at St. Augustine National Cemetery.

Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

We can never truly repay the great debt we owe our fallen heroes. Rest in peace CDR. Ford, I salute your brave soul. My heart goes out to you and your family.

I am the Curator of the POW/MIA Bracelet Display in the Vietnam Hangar of the Palm Springs Air Museum in Palm Springs, California where we now have over two thousand bracelets and would be honored to include your bracelet in our Display. If you are an immediate family member (spouse, fiancé, sibling, son, daughter or grandchild) I can order one for the Display in your name.
