THE WALL OF FACES

Say not in grief he is no more, but live in thankfulness that he was.

Dear SFC George Kendra, Thank you for your service as an Infantry Direct Fire Crewman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Thanksgiving is next week. The time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Dad, this year marks 50 years of your passing. We all miss you. You are in my thoughts each day. I try to pass on my memories of you to my kids. Both Rebecca and Zachary know you and miss you.
Love Steven.

George was killed while on a combat mission when they encountered a hostile force and engaged in a firefight. He was with A Co, 1st BN, 508th Infantry, 3rd Brigade, 82nd ABN DIV in Gia Dinh Province, South Vietnam. James was awarded the Bronze Star. RIP George, we will never forget your sacrifice.

Dear SFC George John Kendra, 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
