THE WALL OF FACES

We can tell Memorial Day is coming with the wreaths that hang on front doors, and the small red, white, and blue American flags that line the grass covered graves of the Veterans’ cemeteries all acrosse America. One of those graves is yours, and we honor your life and your memory on this Memorial day.

May we never forget your example and the true cost of our freedoms. You with those who love you paid that cost, and America will be forever indebted.

With respect, always.

Charlie, I have often thought of you over these many years. It’s true that the good die young! Memories of you on our Boys and Girls club basketball team the “fighting Irish”. Memories of watching you swim competitively. I was at your memorial service when you finally came home, and I had just returned from Paris Island, SC myself had enlisted in USMC not long after your death. I honor you with this remembrance.

This year, as every year for many, my wife finishes the wreaths she makes for every Memorial Day and our American flag is raised in remembrance, as we observe this somber national holiday. You and our loved ones whose names also are inscribed on the Vietnam Memorial are in our hearts. My family and I will never forget the cost of our freedoms, and the men and women who have and continue to step forward to keep America safe.
With respect, always.

On the remembrance of your 68th birthday, your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Thank You CPL McMahon. Never forgotten is Today, April 29th. Not a day to celebrate, but a day to remember the great sacrifice you made in the final hours of the Vietnam War.
