THE WALL OF FACES

I just came across this site and as a fellow Georgian want to express simple gratitude for SP Leach's full measure of devotion and the condolence of an unknown American for the Leach family's loss. He is remembered.

My name is Krysteen Wescott and I am the daughter of Sgt 1st class Robert H Wescott Jr. It meant a lot to me to find your picture.Your niece Amy had Maynard send it to me. You are remembered.

I saw your named being honored in the movie We Were Soldiers. On behalf of my family, my brothers in arms, and all of the men and women I served with through out my 22 years, I would like to salute you for a job WELL DONE!

In 1965 I was 7 years old. My older brothers Calvin and Douglas Leach were both in the Army one in Korea and one in Viet Nam. It was a very cold night the taxi driver pulled up in front of our house at 2:00am and gave my mother the telegram that Douglas had been killed in action. My world stopped turning because this was my invincible older brother who could do any thing. I remember every detail of the military funeral and my other big brother Calvin coming home from Korea for the funeral. The movie We Were Soldiers meant a lot to me showing all the brave men of the 7th Calvary. I still have a base ball cap with their emblem on it.

Thank you for your service.
