THE WALL OF FACES

I remember taking you to Mpls St Paul airport right before Christmas 1967 to see you off for Vietnam, little did we know you would never see our faces again ... your burial was a closed casket and the pain of your loss will never leave.

In February, 2018, I walked the hallowed ground of LZ Peanut; along with others, we make the trek to honor and remember the men who died there 4-5 May, 1968.
My life has been changed by knowing the survivors of that battle.

We can never truly repay the great debt we owe our fallen heroes. Rest in peace CPL. Haefner, I salute your brave soul. My heart goes out to you and your family.

Dear Cpl David Haefner,
Thank you for your service as a Field Artillery Basic. The war was years ago, but we all need 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.

You were one of the brave that answered the call. You honored us by your service and sacrifice. We now honor you each time we stand and sing the words “THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE”. Rest in Peace and Honor David.
