THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. May you rest in eternal peace.

Gunnery Sergeant Wallace Carl Bergstrom Jr., Served with Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 265 (HMM-265), Marine Aircraft Group 36 (MAG-36), 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

Grandpa, I never had the honor or privilege of meeting you. I have visited your burial site many times and thought about the man you were and the sacrifice you made, your son, my uncle, and my mother are just a few headstones down from you. I know there is no other final resting place they would rather be. My dad is your son, you would be proud of him and how he raised Michael, Sarah and I. We have always kept your medals displayed on the wall. I love you grandpa and look forward to the day we finally meet. Semper Fi grandpa.

DEA GUNNY BERGSTROM.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS A WEATHER SERVICE MAN. SEMPER FI. I DRIVE THROUGH WATERBURY ALL THE TIME. SIGH.
IT IS 2017, WHICH MAKES IT FAR TOO LONG FOR YOU TO HAVE BEEN GONE. IT IS ALSO PRESIDENTS' DAY WEEKEND. WE APPRECIATE ALL YOU HAVE DONE, AND YOUR SACRIFICE. WATCH OVER THE U.S.A., IT STILL NEEDS YOUR COURAGE.. GOD BLESS YOU. MAY THE SAINTS AND ANGELS BE AT YOUR SIDE. REST IN PEACE.

I will always remember you as a man to be looked up to and respected. I will always remember the last night before you were lost to all of us.
