THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from your wife Peggy is poignant. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us.

SERVED WITH DIXIE IN THE P.I. PRIOR TO HIS DEPLOYMENT TO VIETNAM--GREAT FRIEND AND THE MOST SQUARED AWAY MARINE I EVER SERVED HIM. THINK OF HIM ALL THE TIME.

You were my best friend's big brother and like a big brother to me. You taught me what a 4bbl carbeurator was in that ol' hot rod Chevy of your's. Sorry for all the pranks me & Tommy pulled on you. I didn't mind having to clean your boots since it was us made you step into the sewerage ditch. I was there that night the uniforms showed at the door to tell the family you were gone.
God bless, keep you and give you rest, Dickie...

Corporal Dixie Carl Berger, Served with Company D, 1st Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

I remember the day you pasted I was in your platoon --pfc Witsman tried to save you but it was to late. It was a terrible day --we lost seven of our friends that day. RIP Cpl Berger & Sgt Gibson & Pfc Najar -you guys were the best ---SEMPER FI MARINES !!!
