THE WALL OF FACES

Michael Saunders and I served together in the States and in Vietnam. Most importantly, Michael and I were friends; drawn to each other, naturally, sharing a common name, Michael. We would go out of our way to greet each other, using "Michael", not "Mike". Although we were in different platoons, we had a bond and, I hope and pray, an affection for each other.

I lost many friends in Vietnam, but Michael's death devastated me. I still mourn him and miss him, tremendously. Rest In Peace and God Bless you, Michael.
