THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from those who knew you are touching and reflect their admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us….

Thank you for your service to our great country my brother. Semper Fi.

I gave a speech about you at a Vietnam Veteran art gallery a couple years back. I told them how we visited your mom and dad and asked who ironed those preppy button downs you always wore. Your mom said she did. You always told us you did. Everyone laughed through their tears. You were so young "Rickey", and you gave so much. Don Petersen

Dear Lcpl Richard Maul, Thank you for your service as a Rifleman. Tomorrow is your 54th anniversary, sad. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Time passes quickly, but our world needs help. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.
