My dearest Bill,
Your many memories will always be pressed between the pages of my mind.
I will never forget the day when you asked me to marry you at my mom's house. and being with you the night before you left for Viet Nam. That trip took you forever away from me. i will always remember our love and
Bill, I miss you still.

Remembering An American Hero
Dear SGT William Frederick Shaw Jr, 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

Served together at Fort Benning
To the men who fought and died, their names on the Wall for all to see.
Lives much to brief, fallen short, just a page in history.
I can’t forget their valor, even as I grow old.
Nor the ultimate sacrifice they made, the bravery they showed.
As I stand in front of Wall, crying in the rain.
For all those men with whom I served and will never see again.

-I served with William at Fort Bening during NCOC school. A great guy and a great leader.
You will not be forgotten.
