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….

Dear Cpl John Joyce, Thank you for your service as a Field Artillery Basic. I researched you on the 51st anniversary of the start of your tour. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Halloween is soon. The time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Corporal John Gerard Joyce. Served with Battery B, 6th Battalion, 14th Artillery Regiment, 52nd Artillery Group, First Field Force.

I was named Sèan which is gaelic for John after him. The sqaure Named in his honor is located at the Old Harbor projects in South Boston where he grew up.

Dear CPL John Gerard Joyce, sir,

As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for the ultimate sacrifice that you 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. And please know that men and women like you have stepped forward to defend our country yet again, showing the same love for country and their fellow Americans that you did- you would be proud.

With respect, and the best salute that a civilian can muster for you.

Curt Carter
