THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Henry Stuckey, Thank you for your service as an Airborne Qualified Infantryman. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Memorial Day just passed to honor you. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

You will forever remain in our hearts and prayers

PFC Henry J. Stuckey was awarded the Bronze Star Medal and Purple Heart Medal (posthumously) for military merit and for wounds received which resulted in his death when he was hit by hostile small arms fire while on combat operation in the KONTUM Province, Republic of Vietnam. He was survived by his parents, Mr. & Mrs. James Stuckey, who lived in the Washington Heights district of Manhattan NY at the time of their son's death.

You were one of the brave that answered the call. You honored us by your service and sacrifice. We now honor you each time we stand and sing the words “THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE”. Rest in Peace and Honor Henry.

As a community service project for the American Legion Auxiliary, I am looking for a photo of this service member so that they may be fully recognized and honored on the Wall of Faces.

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you PFC Stuckey for your exemplary courage in dangerous times, in a far and dangerous place.
