Remembering An American Hero

Dear 1LT Theodore Richard Leighton, 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

Together We Served

I did not know Lt. Leighton personally or serve in the same unit. However, as a fellow Army Vietnam Vet helicopter pilot and member of Army-TogetherWeServed.com, I have created a Fallen Remembrance Profile in his honor on that website. It can be viewed at the following address: http:army.togetherweserved.com (slash) profile (slash) 57527. If anyone has more information about him or pictures that would enhance his profile, please contact me.
