THE WALL OF FACES

I never met you, Raymond but I would like to thank you for your service and ultimate sacrifice. My father was drafted in 1969. I have heard first hand stories of my fathers time in Vietnam. Much respect to you, sir and all of your fallen brothers.

First of all my name is Darryl Nathaniel Clark Sr. Raymond Miller Greene was my eldest brother he was the alpha sibling and I was the omega I being the baby. I was only 4 and 1/2 years old when I opened the door for a military captain in a green jeep asking to speak to my father so I informed him my father was at work that my sister was in charge. I got my sister and went to my room when I heard the screaming from my sister saying no not my brother your lying. If it wasn't for his sacrifice and others sacrifices we probably wouldn't be here today. So for his sacrifice for his and for so many others sacrifices I want to say THANK YOU AND YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. Your Silver Star citation attests to your courage and devotion to your fellow soldiers. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us….

I REMEMBER I WAS 13 YEARS OLD WHEN MY FAMILY RECEIVED NEWS OF HIS DEATH. WE LIVED NEXT DOOR TO HIM AND MY MOM AND DAD WERE VERY CLOSE TO HIS PARENTS HELEN AND CURTIS. I REMEMBER RAY WOULD ALWAYS TAKE THE ME, MY SISITERS AND CHILDREN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD TRICK-OR TREATING; TO WATCH OUT FOR US. HE WAS A WONDERFUL, RESPECTFUL YOUNG MAN. MAN
