THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from Commander Andrew Wall is touching and reflects his admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us….

Dear LCDR Thomas Sitek, Thank you for your service as an Unrestricted Line Officer - Pilot on the USS CONSTELLATION. Glad you were identified in 2002. Welcome home. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Winter will end soon. Time moves quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Welcome Home.

I was honored to participate in Commander Sitek's funeral in August 2003. Since then, his service, his fate, and those he left behind have weighed on my mind. I remember him and his shipmates and recall the line from the movie the Bridges at Toko-Ri: "Where do we get men such as these"? Where, indeed.

Dear LCDR Thomas Walter Sitek, 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
