My trip to D.C
My name is Evan Barnitz. I recently went on a school trip to Washington D.C. I was walking down the memorial wall and happened to look up and see the name of Douglas W. Barnitz. I didn't know of any Barnitz family members that had died in the war. I wanted to know more so I googled searched him and found this.
Thank you
Thank you

A day I'll never forget
I remember running down the stairs one hot day in June. There were men in uniform at our front door. I always tried to act grown up (to impress them-I was 16) when soldiers were at our house to see dad (an officer). Dad was a few steps behind me - It didn't make sense when the soldiers came in without me opening the door or saying a word. Then when they reached dad who at nearly 6'7" had almost collapsed on the floor - did I know why they were at our house. Our lives had forever changed-I'll always miss them both.

Always Remembered - Always Grateful
Doug was two years older than me in high school. He was in my brother and sister's class. I remember him bagging groceries at Tarpy's and always having a smile and kind words for this underclassman. Life comes full circle, I live on Doug's street and teach at the junior high we both attended. Each year when the 8th graders visit DC I take my group to The Wall and tell them about Doug.
Doug you'll always be remembered and I am always grateful to you.
