THE WALL OF FACES

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

Dear PFC Alec Horn, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Alec is buried at Arlington Park Cemetery, block 24, 13th row in from the west, 4th column in from the south (service road)

I talked with another member who served in your and my father's unit. He stated that you knew my father, SSG Larry Mason. I want to say thank you for your service, sacrifice and being with my Dad watching over us in heaven. God Bless your family.

Dear PFC Alec Henry Horn, 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
