THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Ronald Edward Garland, 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

Ronald is buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Buffalo,NY.

Semper Fi, Marine.

Although we never met personally, I want to thank you Ronald Edward Garland, for your courageous and valiant service, faithful contribution, and your most holy sacrifice given to this great country of ours!

Your Spirit is alive--and strong, therefore Marine, you shall never be forgotten, nor has your death been in vain!

Again, thank you PFC Ronald Edward Garland, for a job well done!

REST IN ETERNAL PEACE MY MARINE FRIEND

I didn’t know you, but I want you to know that I deeply appreciate the sacrifice you gave to our country. You died one of the noblest deaths there could be. I thank you.
