THE WALL OF FACES

DEAR HOSPITALMAN ACTON,

YOU LOST YOUR LIFE 4 DAYS AFTER YOUR BIRTHDAY, YOU ALSO DIED SAVING THE LIVES OF MARINES.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AND REST IN PEACE.

Hospitalman David August Acton, Served with the Headquarters and Service Company, 2nd Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

Dear HN David A Acton, 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, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir

Curt Carter

You gave your life for your country and for this we Salute You.

Semper Fi, Doc. Thank you for your service to our country and to your Marines.
