THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Sp4 Robert Knadler, Thank you for your service as a Radio Operator. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It is the 12th Day of Christmas, Merry Christmas and happy New Year in heaven. The time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Specialist Four Robert Stanley Knadler, Served with the Headquarters and Headquarters Battery, 6th Battalion, 84th Artillery Regiment, First Field Force, United States Army Vietnam.

Stanley, our parents were good friends and you were the first serviceman I ever knew that was killed in Vietnam. I was 15 and yet vividly remember my parents going to your services....the sadness.

Two years later I met a man fresh home from Vietnam and we have been married 44 years now. He suffers from PTSD and while it is a struggle, it is well worth it to share his life.

I so wish you would have been able to come home, to savor every moment of what life offered. I think of you often and you will never be forgotten Stanley. Thank you for your service, Sir.

Dear SP4 Robert Stanley Knadler, 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

Rest in peace with the warriors.
