Uncle Bobby

Uncle Bobby,
I wish I had known you better. I was only 7 when you were taken from us. Mom & grandma loved you so much. You had such a bright future.
But God had other plans for you. You gave your life protecting your squad. By doing that other men lived and were able to go home to their families.
From Beverly (mom), Terrie, and myself, someday we'll meet again. Love you forever.

Remembering An American Hero

Dear SP4 Robert W Bates, 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
