THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever….

I was your radioman and your bodyguard. Fifty-three years and I still feel bad that I couldn't keep you from getting killed that day on the road to Hai Van Pass. You were a great Marine officer!

Dear Captain Lyle Johnson, Thank you for your service as an Infantry Officer. Your 52nd anniversary is this week, sad. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. The time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Semper Fi, Captain.

Dear Captain Lyle Albert Johnson, 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
