THE WALL OF FACES

57 years seems like yesterday visited Beverly National Cemetery today with Cousin Rowland we will NEVER FORGET. Your nephew Matt

I was 14 years old and went to his funeral with my father Leonard Adimari. I was moved by the Marine standing by his closed casket. A year later I could not understand why my father insisted we go to the quarry and shoot. I said I can shoot he said but you can't hit anything. Realizing later when I was A1 what I was being taught.
I came out 305 in the lottery and did not go to Vietnam but to this day I can fire that 30/30 short bolt action rifle and hit any thing up to 150 yards.
I am over 70 now and I will always remember.

Today marks 56 years of that tragic day and yet it seems like yesterday you will always be remembered your nephew Matt

Corporal Rowland Joseph Adamoli, Served with Company A, 1st Amphibian Tractor Battalion (1st AMTRAC), 3rd Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from your daughter is especially touching. As long as you are remembered you will never truly die.
