THE WALL OF FACES

Dear LTC Alfred Barnes, 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

Thank you for everything you did in the war. We appreciatiate all the duties you had did to make our country a free one in the Vietnam war. I just can't thank you enough for what you did for us. Thank you.

I did not know Col Barnes but I want to wish him and his family the peace of the Lord as we approach another Memorial Day tomorrow and remember those who have fallen and the families they left behind.

Alfred is buried at Arlington Nat Cem.
