THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from your sister Eileen are touching and reflect her admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever….

Dear Sgt Raymond Link, Thank you for your service as an Aircraft Electronic Systems Tech/Trainee. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Today is Easter Friday. The time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

Dearest Raymond,as I'm sure you see, Pauline and I are still attached at the hip, and the heart. We talk about and remember you always. We laugh, we cry, but mostly imagine life with you know. Rest well, we will hold you again when we meet you in heaven.

At approximately 1:30 AM on August 28, 1967, Marble Mountain Air Facility (MMAF) near Da Nang, RVN, came under heavy rocket attack. Five Marines died during the barrage and dozens of others were wounded when a billeting area was hit while Marines were sleeping. The lost personnel included CPL Terry L. Ecker, LCPL Michael J. Caller, LCPL Philip R. Curran, SGT Raymond P. Link, and CPL Robert H. Steele. CPL Ecker had less than 30 days left before his return to the U.S. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org and popasmoke.com]
