My Brother
Been 53yrs my brother, I wished you were here. I needed you so much as I'm crying while posting this, I know Heaven is where your resting with our Mother and Father myself, I may not make it there. Love you my only sibling and I have too thank you for your service but it's still hard for me to accept a war that wasn't needed and all the other's that were taken for, ACTUALLY NO REASON. Love you Uddy.

Remembering An American Hero
Dear PFC Phillip Anthony Lotta, 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
