THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Larry Jackson, Thank you for your service an Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It's the end of summer and Labor Day is in a few days. The time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Private First Class Larry Richard Jackson, Served with Company D, 2nd Battalion, 35th Infantry Regiment, 4th Infantry Division.

Larry - It's been 46 years since we last saw each other and, brother, you have been in my thoughts and prayers, maybe not every day, but so often that I will never forget your smiling face and gentle strength. It was guys like you, and Tony, that the rest of us could count on to get us through those dire times whether by always having our backs or your positive and encouraging support. And, Larry, through God's good graces I was able to meet your lovely wife, Joan. Although you were only married a very short time she had such great memories of your times together and her love for you remains as strong today and it was then.

God bless you Larry and until we can serve together again,
Romain

Dear PFC Larry Richard Jackson, 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

Larry is buried at Memory Gardens Cemetery near Grayson, KY.
