WILLIAM RAY PEDDLE
I went to Senior High school with Glen Peddle. I was a teen at the time and interested in teen things. However, I will never forget the day at school when it was announced over the PA system about Glen's brother. As I have become older and wiser and more involved in VeteranMilitary volunteer work I have often thought of Glen and his brother. All these years later. I am honored to be part of the PGR who will be doing Honor Guard at the Wall, I am going to look for USMC WILLIAM RAY PEDDLE. Semper Fi to all his family who have been without him these many years.

NEVER FORGOTTEN
FOREVER REMEMBERED
"If you are able, save for them a place inside of you....and save one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go.....Be not ashamed to say you loved them....
Take what they have left and what they have taught you with their dying and keep it with your own....And in that time when men decide and feel safe to call the war insane, take one moment to embrace those gentle heroes you left behind...."
Quote from a letter home by Maj. Michael Davis O'Donnell
KIA 24 March 1970. Distinguished Flying Cross: Shot down and Killed while attempting to rescue 8 fellow soldiers surrounded by attacking enemy forces.
We Nam Brothers pause to give a backward glance, and post this remembrance to you, one of the gentle heroes lost to the War in Vietnam:
Slip off that pack. Set it down by the crooked trail. Drop your steel pot alongside. Shed those magazine-ladened bandoliers away from your sweat-soaked shirt. Lay that silent weapon down and step out of the heat. Feel the soothing cool breeze right down to your soul ... and rest forever in the shade of our love, brother.
From your Nam-Band-Of-Brothers
