THE WALL OF FACES

I received my bracelet my freshman year in high school and wore it for many years. To this day, I have not forgotten his name. Thank you sir for your service. Rest in Peace.

I received my bracelet as a freshman in high school back in 1972. I wore it for many years. To this day, I never forgot his name and often wondered about him. Thank you sir for your service. May you rest in peace.

LT COL Robert Edward Pietsch is buried in a joint grave with MAJ Louis Guillerman in Section 60, Site 10578 of the Arlington National Cemetery.

Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

HOOAH

Robert was my Dads first cousin. I grew up in Brookline but never met Robert since he was 10 years older. I first found out he was a MIA in 1970 in a Press Feature on local MIA's. What is spooky was I was asked many time about my Brother Bob being shot down. It turns out I have a brother, Robert F. Pietsch who is 2 years younger than me. There has been much confusion about this.
My grandson is an honor scout guard as the 238' Memorial Trailer comes to Brockway today. My wife and I are going down.
Although I never met Robert my entire family is very proud of his service.

I knew your children growing up in Mt Lebanon. What wonderful people, you would be so proud. I could never imagine the grief they experienced, but held their heads up proud. I often think of how brave you and your family are. May God wrap just arms around you.
