We Will Remember

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

To my great uncle who I will never forget

Dear, Thomas you may not know me but i know you because my dad told me about you, and when I discovered the wall of faces it gave me a chance to see who you were. Trust me I will never forget you, may god bless your soul.
with love, your great nephew Tucker Marlow

My Kontum, Vietnam Roommate

It wasn't a room but a no-door small space for two cots and a small walking area between cots. I remember a good guy, efficient, loyal and dedicated to duty. He once saved the lives of his flight crew when during an attack on our small compound at Kontum, his chopper went airborne to drop 4 foot parachute flairs so we on the ground could see the attacking force. One flair went off inside the helicopter quickly burning through the floor area. Thomas, with bare hands, picked up the burning flair and tossed in overboard. I don't remember if he was ever decorated for that effort but if not, he sure should have been. He saved the lives of his flight crew and his helicopter with his heroic effort.

Remembering An American Hero

Dear SP4 Thomas Allen Hinson, 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
