THE WALL OF FACES

You will forever remain in our hearts and prayers

Sgt/Gibson:
I was standing right behind you as you entered the chopper to depart on our mission. The crew chief stopped me and said "take the next chopper" I said there's room now..he said take the next one. You chopper landed on a different part of the hill then the one the rest of the platoon took, and before we were able to meet up, you got hit. The next night a chaplain came out and we held a service on a hill for you. The platoon was never the same after you left. I think of you all the time. You were a great Sgt. we missed you and you leadership.
