THE WALL OF FACES

This photo was taken of my uncle right after getting out of bootcamp.

Uncle Jim you did what you did because you wanted to help those in that country from what I learned from your friends and my family. I pray that by showing you in your uniform that you will be remembered by all those who served over there with you. I will always love you Uncle Jim even though I never got to meet you.

I never got to see him because he fought for his country in the War of Vietnam. I thank God my father wasn't sent over because if so I wouldn't be here today. But more then anything I wish my Uncle Jim was still alive to see his great Niece as well as his niece and Nephew that his Brother Barry Heath has today. I know your with God Uncle Jim but I so dearly wish I had gotten the chance to know you very much. You will always be honored in this family no matter what! I love you!

Your brothers of Second Battalion, First Marines honor your service and
your supreme sacrifice. You are one of our Heroes. Your comrades of 2/1
hold you in their hearts and minds forever. Take your warrior's rest for a
duty well done. Semper Fi, Marine!
