THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Specialist 4 Polasek (Joe) ~ You Are Not Forgotten!
This is the 3rd year, on the anniversary of your passing, that I ran a mile with you in my thoughts and prayers. Rest in Peace, Dear Brother.

Each year since September 2015, at the annual 5th Division Army reunion, members of the Society of the Fifth Division, U.S Army remember the 514 soldiers from the 1st Brigade, 5th Division, who were Killed in Action in Vietnam. You are among the soldiers remembered. You Are Not Forgotten!

Since I have last written John and Lt

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. While all deaths in Vietnam are tragic that you died just five days after your 22nd birthday is especially so. May you rest in eternal peace.
