THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from Joel Ted Ivey is moving and reflects his admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us….

Never forgotten.

HOOAH

Dear Sp4 Tommy Ivey, Thank you for your service a Flight Qualified Aircraft Maintenance Apprentice. 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.

I only got to know Tommy for a short time after he joined the gun platoon of our company, maybe two or three months before I left Vietnam. But in that time, Tommy, Jerry Schaffer, and I became fast friends. He was easy to like. My first grandson, my name sake, was born on Jan.20. I think of Tommy each time I see him

It was 46-years ago that the 175th Assault Helicopter Company, Maverick "Gun Platoon" lost a door gunner, friend & brother in arms of many. I was fortunate to have know you and have you as a friend. You were always a happy & easy going guy when we were not flying and one of the best crewmen / door gunner that the Mavericks ever had in their ranks. I enjoyed kicking back & relaxing after our missions were over & listening to you playing your harmonica. During 175th AHC reunions you are always remembered along with other Maverick, Outlaw & Bushwhacker brothers that gave the ultimate sacrifice.. Thank you for being the man you were & the service you gave to this country. We all miss you & know that you are in a better place. Rest in peace my friend.
