THE WALL OF FACES

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

Dear PFC Richard Starkey, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. The 47th anniversary of the Fall of Saigon just passed. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Private First Class Richard William Starkey, Served with Company L, 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

Dear PFC Richard William Starkey, 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, Sir

Curt Carter

We have moved on, we have lived, we have died, we have married and had children, we have grown old, you remain forever young, you were brave.
Always in our memory, forever in our hearts.
