THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service and sacrifice.

My husband has worn Major Martin Scott's bracelet for many years. I decided to look into Major Scott & much to our surprise, he was coming home. My husband would like to mail his bracelet to the family. Please e-mail me as to where I could send this

It was emotional and awesome. I bought a bracelet 49 yrs ago when I became best friends with his brother, Bill Scott. I got to meet and visit with his oldest son, Ronald. He said people with the Bracelets should make a personal decision and it was fine with the family if they choose to keep them as a remembrance. The service was definitely a hero's welcome home.

So sorry that I couldn’t make it to the memorial & burial today in Oklahoma. I made a Powerpoint and talked to my students about Col. Scott, the Vietnam War, and why I wore his bracelet for the past 50 years. At one point I started crying and they were also very moved. They will never forget the story I told them about Col. Scott, his sons and his wife, Oklahoma, and the Memorial in DC. They were most concerned about what I should do with the bracelet, now that he is home. Me wearing Col. Scott’s bracelet has been a way to keep his memory alive through discussions with my children, their children, & now my students here in England. My thoughts and good wishes are with his family, now and always.

After coming home from Vietnam and Discharged from Marine Corps in Jan. 68, I purchased a POW/MIA bracelet when the came out. I wore it over 30 years. It broke and got soldered so many times that it finally wore out and not repairable. I kept it but unable to find it now. I will always remember Col. Martin Scott and so pleased He has finally come home. Was able to be at the beautiful funeral service in Claremore, Oklahoma where a large crowd came to pay their respects. Look forward to seeing you in Heaven Colonel and swap stories.
