Thank you for your sacrifice

In the early 1970’s I purchased a bracelet with your name on it. I wore it every day. It’s tucked away safely for my grandsons to witness a piece of our history when they are older. Each day I am grateful for your sacrifice that afforded me a life of freedom. Gone but always remembered.

Thank you for your sacrifice

In 1971 I purchased a bracelet with your name on it and wore it for a long time. I am now 70 and am going to pass it to my granddaughter with an explanation. I did not know there were several of the same name I just found this Wall and decided to post a remembrance. Thank you.

His Bracelet

My dad, also in the Air Force one evening in 1970, when we lived in the Philippines (Clark AFB) brought home six bracelets for everyone in our family... my bracelet was Robert Panek, Sr. I have had the bracelet since 1970 and visited Wash. DC Memorial Wall. He has never left my memory. I have a special file on him...glad to know, I wasn't the only person. Always in my heart. Laura
