THE WALL OF FACES

Dear Cpl Charles Stovall, Thank you for your service as an Indirect Fire Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Memorial Day is soon, and we honor you. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Thank you Charlie for giving your all so your company commander and fellow squad members survived the ambush on that night. Because of you, I have had another fifty years. Hand salute......

Charles is buried at Forrest Cemetery, Gadsden,AL.

Dear CPL Charles Allen Stovall, 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

Feb. 16 2008 Today, my father, James M. Epperson and my uncle Louis W. Epperson placed a flag at their cousin Charlies grave to commerate the fortieth anniversary of his death. Feb. 14, 1968. They not only honored Charie's ultimate sacrifice, but all veterans in every branch of service who were willing to insure our freedom by their efforts.
