THE WALL OF FACES

Mike, as we called him, was nothing special.
He was not a stand out athelte.
He was not a great student.
Yet Mike WAS SPECIAL.
He was a leader.
It didn't matter what season it was
the neighborhood played whatever
Mike wanted. He was the leader in the hood.
No one made a decision without checking with Mike.
We were and still are the only high school kids
to have played in the industrial basketball league
thanks to Mike.
Mike will never grace another basketball court,
throw another td pass or hit another home run.
That has been my loss. BUT Mike continues to lead
I try to live in a way that would please two men
both gone from earth : my father and
ROBERT MICHAEL SMITH
Rest in peace my friend I miss you still.

Mike was assigned to the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment (Blackhorse) at the time of his death. 11th Armored Cavalry Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia are attempting to locate relatives of all of our Troopers who made the ultimate sacrifice in Vietnam.

POST-TO-POST HORSE-TO-HORSE AND ONTO FIDDLERS GREEN ALLONS AND AMEN.

He was a very brave man.
He put his life on the line to show
his country that he cared.
He deserves great respect from this country.
He was a man with great pride.

We Only Had A Short Time
Together
But,Your Memories Have Never Left My Heart
