Dear John,
Hello, I am a Gridley High School student. My class and the rest of my high school are doing The Gridley High Posting Project. We are posting remembrances for all of those who fought in the Vietnam War. I just want to take the time and thank you for all that you have done for our country. It takes a lot of courage and dignity to do what you did. You will never be forgotten. Thank you and God Bless.
