THE WALL OF FACES

Remember to save for them a place inside of you, and save one backward glance when you are leaving, for the places they can no longer go...

Dear PFC James Hamlet,
Thank you for your service as a Combat Engineer. Today is the Ides of March. 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.

Your life was taken the day mine was given. I know you lived your life with courage and honor because you served your country. I only hope that I have lived a life worthy of the sacrifice you made for our country. Thank you for your service.

With respect
Mark Mugler

You are always in my thoughts and prayers. I remember the good times and bad time we had in Nam until the day you left us! We pulled many patrols together and became buddies! I will meet you on the other side my friend!
