THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Lt William Stefko, Thank you for your service as an Infantry Unit Commander. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Today is the 47th anniversary of the official end of the war. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

The war may be forgotten but the warrior will always be remembered. All gave Some-Some gave All. Rest in peace Sky Soldier.

I was at a briefing that night. The movie was the Magnificent Seven. So I went to see it. Some stayed back to play volley ball. I heard the mortar's drop in the tube the timing was just as they blew up the tunnel in the movie. The rounds landed right on the court. We lost 5 men that night. My LT lost both legs.

Remember that night like yesterday. I did not know you personally but I was there the night you were KIA. RIP Sir

On behalf of all the paratroopers who served with you in the 173rd Airborne Brigade (Separate) and all who followed, we offer our respect and remembrance of your ultimate sacrifice. May you never be forgotten and your family and friends take comfort in your valor in serving.
