THE WALL OF FACES

Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Semper Fi, Doc

Dear HN Michael Reinhold, Thank you for your service as a Hospitalman with the 5th Marines, Semper Fi. Thank you for the lives you saved. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Today is the 57th anniversary of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Michael was the first guy I knew in high school to die in that awful war. I graduated from the same high school two years later (‘70), and entered the USAF after being drafted. At a reunion years later I told his parents I would not forget and would continue to honor him. I tweet him every Memorial Day.

Thank you for your service and your sacrifice. Thank you for stepping up and answering your country's call. Rest easy knowing you will never be forgotten.

Uncle Mike is buried next to his parents (my grandparents) in St. Francis, KS, not Page, AZ.
