THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you, PFC Michael McDonald, for your service and your sacrifice. You will always be remembered.

Dear PFC Michael McDonald, Thank you for your service as an Airborne Qualified Infantryman with the 1st Cavalry. 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.

I was 16 when he was killed and the first causality in our county. We were told he was rescuing 5 other soldiers bygetting them to the helicopter and was shot as the last one was carried there. I like to think all 5 men survived and hope that is true. My brother was kind, funny, gentle and would give you the shirt off his back. He didn’t believe in the war but did believe in his country. It has been many, many years, but I still love and miss him and think of him often. There are no winners in war.

Does anybody know where Michael W. McDonald is buried? (Burial unknown (Coffelt Database of Vietnam Casualties).

Dear PFC Michael William McDonald, 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
