Reunited
LCPL Juan Mina, After 56 years I was able to reunite you with my Dad (Pappy). He was with you the day you both were wounded. You both paid such a terrible price that fateful day. I can NEVER express my gratitude enough for your sacrifice, but I hope to honor it by brining you and my Dad together once more. In the words of my father "Semper Fi"!

honoring you.....
"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotions and spends himself in a great worthy cause; who at the best, knows in the end triumph of high achievement and, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while caring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold, timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt

To my Uncle
Dear Uncle Juan,
How I wish I could have met you. My mom has missed you everyday. You were her best friend. I only have one photo of you and my brothers resemblance to you is unreal. You have always been a special place in my heart and I am profoundly proud of you. You were taken to soon and forever missed. I love you Uncle Juan.
