Angel Day
On this your angel day I wanted to express my gratitude to you for your service to our country and for the greatest sacrifice any man can make – your precious life.
Many have said that the Vietnam War was a pointless war and that the loss of your life was in useless, but I do not feel that this is true. Your service and sacrifice have not been in vain, but has been a source of healing and hope. This is signified in all the messages left by the youth of our nation on this sacred site. I read their comments and know that you are not forgotten by them and that you and your brothers-in-arms will be an influence for good for generations to come.
I will always remember you and the others on The Wall. I will do my utmost best to never to forget you and to do all that I can do to keep your memory alive. Even if it is just to leave a message here on your remembrance page on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial site. This is my promise to you and the others.
Rest well now and know that you are always remembered by this humble American Girl.

Dear Philip,
It has been many years since you met your creator. I come visit you most mornings during the week at the plaque in Bishop Moore. I keep trying to find out more about you. I can not find too much but I found this rememberance page and wanted to write to you. God bless you, dear fellow Bishop Moore classmate. I am so grateful for and proud of you! Thank you for your ultimate sacrifice!!! I can never repay you but I look forward to meeting you in Heaven.
