THE WALL OF FACES

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.

Dear PFC William Ilman, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

My Father, Bruce Illman, was your half brother. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to meet you. You passed in January of 1968, and I was born in June... Thank you so much for your service and ultimate sacrifice in the Vietnam War. Thinking of you today and always, and I'm proud to call you my Uncle.

Dear PFC William Steve Illman, 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

May his sacrifice not be forgotten.
