Remembering An American Hero
Dear 1LT William George McCann, 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

Thank You!
Dear Soldier,
Hello, my name is Nick Lyons. I am a junior at Gridley High School. Right now, we are in the middle of a school project. The project is to leave remembrances for the many US soldiers who gave up their lives defending this great country. So, I just wanted to thank you for giving up your life so that I might be free. You are truly a Great and Noble American! Thank you and God Bless!
Nick Lyons
