Thank you for your service as an Infantry Unit Commander. 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 remember his kindness and the day you left for second turin Vietnam I still read your letters to this day your son Steve ray Gordon

I was with Lt. Gordon at 3rd.field hospital. Sept.1969. Also was out in the field the day he died. He was a great guy never forget his humor.

I never did meet Drannon Ray Gordon but my grandfather Jimmy Lee Ross was very good friends with him a honared him by naming my father Drannon Dewayne after him and he in turned named me Drannon Lee Ross and Ive passed the name down to my son Drannon Joshua Ross . I'm just honared to have the name Drannon passed down to me from such a great man . I would like to speak with his family to get to know more about him my grandfather has told me many stories I've got one picture of him if any of the family see this please contact me at dross81@ cox.net I would love to get to tell my grandfather I spoke to his family and intern maybe talk to him . Thanks and god bless .

Dear 1LT Drannon Ray Gordon, 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
