THE WALL OF FACES

May those who served never be forgotten. We can never truly repay the great debt we owe our fallen heroes. My mother was from Pineville, SC. I was raised in Jamaica, Queens New York. Rest in peace SP4. Blanding, I salute your brave soul. My heart goes out to you and your family. From a Coast Guard vet.

59 years after his death I am still grieving his death. Thank each of you for taking the time to honor my ;baby brother. Missed and loved by his family and all who knew him. Burned in Pineville, S. C. , Graduated from Russellville High School May, 1965. Moved to Jamaica, N. Y. Where he continued his studies in the health field. Studied until he was drafted into the army.

You will forever remain in our hearts and prayers

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us....

I am so thankful that his face is now represented on this site. I have tried to track down a photo for this site since May of 2015. The NSDAR and Berkeley County Library were Commemorative Partners with the United States Vietnam War Commemoration. I am the Oral History and Digital Projects Librarian for the County and have continued my quest to make sure every fallen soldier from Berkeley County has a face to go with his name of the Vietnam Memorial Wall. Henry Blanding's hometown was Pineville, SC.
