Thank You

Dear Cpl Peter Mears, Thank you for your service as an Airborne Qualified Infantryman. I researched you on your 52nd anniversary, sad. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. The anniversary of the terror attacks just passed. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.
