THE WALL OF FACES

Hey Uncle John! It’s me, your nephew. I know we haven’t met, that would be impossible. I’m 13 and in 8th grade now in Texas! I heard you, My grandpa, Rave and Pete were great brothers. But sadly, out of all of you guys, only one came back home. Dave. We sadly still don’t know how Pete died. We probably never will. But Grandpa, grandpa and my dad still talk about you! But they can’t talk about you and Pete without crying a bit. I still would have loved to meet both you and Pete! Even if it was just for an hour or less. Maybe even get your autograph! Yeah, I’m an autograph collector now! Well, I do, and will always love you. I love you Uncle John.

Sincerely, Luca D. Premenko

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. While all deaths in Vietnam are tragic that you died just three days after your 21st birthday is especially so. May you rest in eternal peace.

Dear Sgt John Prememko, Thank you for your service as a Special Forces Qualified Radio Operator. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

This is in respect for Sgt John. My brother was with you the day you paid the ultimate price for all America. My brother Steve Foster was with you and Benny Malto and three South Vietnamese counterparts when you where ambushed. It is with my respect for your actions that I wish to honor you and all those who did not come back. Thank you Sir!!

Dear SGT John Al Premenko, 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
