THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Richard Jones, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Yesterday was your 52nd anniversary, sad. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Columbus Day just passed, and we are looking forward to Halloween. 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 Richard William Jones, Served with the 3rd Platoon, Company D, 2nd Battalion, 28th Infantry Regiment,1st Infantry Division

Thank you PFC Jones for your courage in dangerous times, in a far and dangerous place.

Dear PFC Richard William Jones, 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

Richard is buried at Mound City Nat Cem.
