THE WALL OF FACES

He was always there when you needed him. We joked together and he signed a letter to my mother requesting she send me my trumpet...As I look at his signature it's as if it were yesterday...He was a good Marine and my friend.

Dear LCPL James Michael Hoffman, 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

James is buried at Mound Cem, Rolling Fork, Sharkey Co, MS.PH

I have always and will always remember you friend.

God Bless You Forever
