THE WALL OF FACES

Not many days go by, that day is not on my mind. I left a quarter on your stone yesturday. It took 48 years. Should have done it long before now. Your not forgotten

Dear Sp4 Roger Kojetin, Thank you for your service as an Armor Crewman. Your 48th anniversary just passed, sad. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. 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.

I grew up around the corner from Roger and went to school with his brother Rick. I remember him fondly and often. Thank you so much for your service and your sacrifice.

I met Roger in college and we rodeoed together... He was always fun to be around and was riding bareback horses so good that summer when he was called up... I last got a chance to be with him when we were at the Belt rodeo- and he told me that he had to report for the Army soon...
You are always in my thoughts old buddy- and someday we'll get a chance to ride the roughstock again...

Dear SP4 Roger John Kojetin, 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
