THE WALL OF FACES

Now I know why I’m obsessed with the military and the freedoms this country has. Great Uncle, thank you. Thank you for your service, thank you for your sacrifice, thank you for instilling that warriors spirit in our blood. I will come visit you in Glendale soon.

Hi Uncle Lincoln,
I never got the opportunity to meet you, but my mom (Sherrin) has told me so much about you. I thank you for putting your life on the line at such a young age, so much bravery and courage. Until we meet in eternal life, your great niece Gwen will always remember you.

Private Lincoln Hardy, Served with Company D, 2nd Battalion, 3rd Infantry Regiment, 199th Infantry Brigade, United States Army Vietnam.

Dear Pvt Lincoln Hardy,
Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Today is Vietnam War Veterans' Memorial Day. It is now Lent. 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.

Dear PVT Lincoln Hardy, 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
