Dear CPL Ronald Wayne Knosky, 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, Sir

Curt Carter

I served with Ron as a tank crewman in Vietnam many years ago. Ron was the most squared away Marine I ever knew even in Nam. We served together for many months under some very bad conditions. We formed a bond that only combat can form. we were truly Brothers in Arms. I Held Ron in my arms as he took his last breath on that day in May 1967. I only wish there had been something that I could have done to prevent his death. Rest in peace brother Semper Fi
