Uncle John
Although I may have never met you, I've been told about your great service for our country. You may never get to see how much the person that you saved is grateful for what you did, you should know that your family loved you very much and was and is very proud of you.

Remembering An American Hero
Dear LCPL David John Pellosma, sir
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.
With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir
Curt Carter
