THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Sp4 Steven McArthur, Thank you for your service as an Airborne Qualified Supplyman. 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.

In Flanders Fields and Nam's Highlands
On Normandy's beach with blood soaked sands
Fallen heroes our brothers stay
To be remembered every day
Though time passes through its hands.

They are the dead, in sheeted bands,
They lived as us from many lands
Loved and were loved, Oh! the price they pay
In Flanders Fields, and Nam's Highlands

We will not forget one or the thousands
Their memories like redwood stands
Forever proud you'll hear me say
Thank you soldier that we not layy
In Flander's Fields and Nam's highlands

I attended high school with Steve, we were in shop class together, he was 65, I was 67. In school Steven also went by Steven Loomer.

Dear SP4 Steven Michael McArthur, 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

Steven is buried at Forest Cem, Coeur D'Alene, ID.
