Way to soon...
Dougy, you were 11 when I was born. I was 13 when you died. The family prayed for you often. We grieved when we heard the news. Shot by a sniper as you were getting on the transport to ship home. You're mother, my aunt, Pearlene, was cared for. Wish we could have spent some significant time together, cousin. Every time I go to The Wall [in Washington or the Mobile Wall] I place my hands on your name. My hope is focused on a future day of reunion. Our hope is in Christ who gave His life for our freedom as well.

Remembering An American Hero
Dear SGT Douglas Eugene Long, 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, Sir
Curt Carter
