THE WALL OF FACES

I came across the braclet I used to wear with Grecory Benton Jr. name on it in the back of my jewerly box. I wore it everyday to think of him for fighting for our freedom. I understand that there might be quite a few of these braclets out there but would be willing to send it to any of the family.

I wear your bracelet so you will never be forgotten and to show your life was not lost in vain.

I wire the POW/MIA bracelet if Gregory Benton jr when I was a kid in San Diego. Grew up, joined the Army and first duty station was Arlington, Virginia. They built the wall while I was there. I got a rubbing off his name. Came back to San Diego, workered a temporary assignment at Camp Pendleton, for the Army Reserves and saw a photo on the desks there, I exclaimed matter of factly his name. The woman said how do you know him and I explained. It was his sister. I had written to get more information when I was a child, she wrote and sent a photo and that’s how I knew who he was. Amazing “coincidences” in life, never really are, are they? Still MIA as far as I know. Still hoping to see him brought home or found. Happy Flag Day! We remember!

I have also proudly worn a silver POW bracelet with Gregory's name on it since I was in high school. With every list of names released I searched for his name and was so disappointed not to find it. As an educator for over 30 years of small children I made sure they understood the meaning of his sacrifice. I will never forget him and continue to pray for his return home.
