THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Joe Kelley, Thank you for your service as a Field Artillery Basic. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. We are approaching Thanksgiving. 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 Joe Carl Kelley, Served with Battery C, 2nd Battalion, 33rd Artillery Regiment, 1st Infantry Division, United States Army Vietnam.

Joe was one of the most kind and gentle fellow soldier in our artillery battery. We were in the same gun section.

Dear PFC Joe C Kelley, 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

Joe is buried at Stilwell Cemetery, Stilwell,OK. PH
