Remembering An American Hero

Dear SP4 Gerald L Aadland, 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

Remembering you today . . .

I as a humble American Girl want you to know that you are a blessing to a countless number of people past, present, and future. And through your selfless service and courageous deeds your efforts have and will have an influence on many generations. And with all the good you did and the ultimate sacrifice you paid you truly are OUR HERO and we thank God that you lived.



In your honor I leave this poem for you.



FREEDOM

by Father Denis Edward O'Brien, USMC



It is the soldier, not the reporter

Who has given us the freedom of the press.



It is the soldier, not the poet,

Who has given us Freedom of speech.



It is the soldier, not the campus organizer

Who has given us the Freedom to demonstrate



It is the soldier, who serves beneath the Flag,

Who salutes the Flag,



Whose coffin is draped by the Flag,

Who allows the protestor to burn the Flag,



It is the soldier, not the politician,

Who has given his blood, his body, his life,

Who has given us these FREEDOMS!
