THE WALL OF FACES

He loved us so.
Every day, in a hundred ways, he told us so.
In honesty, in affection, he told us so.
He loved us so.
Every day,. in a hundred ways, he showed us so.
With loyalty and bravery, he showed us so.
He was our defender, and he kept us free!
He took an oath to guard us, and fought for liberty!
He loved us so, and we should know.
For we loved him so.
Corporal Harah, you have given all that mortality can give! And you have given your last full measure of devotion in the service of our country! Your bravery and courage will be remembered and will be told and retold for years and years to come, for America is still free and strong, and our flag still flies high! Your name and fame are the birthright of EVERY American citizen! You have lived up to the code of conduct and chivalry of those who guard this beloved land. You brought honor to Pittsburgh, the HOME OF THE BUCS AND THE STEELERS!...the city where three rivers meet, and the HOME OF HEROES BRAVE AND TRUE! You had been there and done that! I believe that Jill Corey, whom Avonmore (her home town) and Pittsburgh (where she got her start) can claim as one of their own, and whom I admire so greatly---SO GREATLY---as one of my three top favorite, fabulous songbirds, along with England's Julie Andrews, and England's Dusty Springfield (who passed on in 1999) would be very proud of your service to America, and the sacrifices you made to keep our country free! Well done, Corporal! Be thou at peace. ARMY STRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will never forget the sacrifices made by all of the Vietnam soldiers and will keep all of you in my heart until my last day on earth.

Your journey on earth ended too soon, but you will have everlasting life in heaven.

Thank you for your bravery and courage.

Rest in peace dear soldier.

ALWAYS REMEMBERED

Slip off that pack. Set it down by the crooked trail. Drop your steel pot alongside. Shed those magazine-ladened bandoliers away from your sweat-soaked shirt. Lay that silent weapon down and step out of the heat. Feel the soothing cool breeze right down to your soul....and rest forever in the shade of our love, brother.

From all your "Band of Nam Brothers"

Frank, Although we never met, I just want you to know you are not forgotten. You gave the ultimate sacrifice, your life for what you believed in. Sleep well my friend, and thank you for protecting the freedoms we enjoy today.
