THE WALL OF FACES

War drew us from our homeland
In the sunlit springtime of our youth.
Those who did not come back alive remain
in perpetual springtime -- forever young --
And a part of them is with us always.

Dear PFC Walter Peterson, Thank you for your service as an Indirect Fire Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. The 46th anniversary of the fall of Saigon just passed, and it is still sad. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

We called you Junior Peterson....you were so cool, wearing the "hero" jacket of the day, wool coat with leather sleeves... I got to know you when you attended Pine City High School for your senior year and I will never forget the fun we had at the Friday night dances after the football and basketball games. To think that you went on to join the Army and fight in Viet Nam was very sad to me....

I will never forget you. Thank you....rest in peace

There was another Veteran from Mora that died in Vietnam. He was Gary Wayne Peterson and his memorial can be found under ST PAUL PARK, Minnesota.

You were one of the brave that answered the call. You honored us by your service and sacrifice. We now honor you each time we stand and sing the words “THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE”. Rest in Peace and Honor Walt.
