THE WALL OF FACES

Dear LCPL Gregory Eugene Hankins, 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

Semper Fi, Marine.

Gregory is buried at Memorial Park Cemetery, St Petersburg,FL. PH

Greg and I were in boot camp together and I remember him fondly. Semper Fi.

Although we never met personally, I want to thank you Gregory Eugene Hankins, for your courageous and valiant service, faithful contribution, and your most holy sacrifice given to this great country of ours!

Your Spirit is alive--and strong, therefore Marine, you shall never be forgotten, nor has your death been in vain!

Again, thank you LCPL G.E. Hankins, for a job well done!

REST IN ETERNAL PEACE MY MARINE FRIEND
