Thank You

Dear CMSgt Larry Thornton, Thank you for your service as a Defensive Fire Control Systems Operator/Superintendent. Glad you were identified in 2012 (I researched you on that 10 anniversary). Welcome Home. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It is another summer. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it still needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Your Name

Hey Sargent, I’m a 49 yr old Idaho boy who made it to DC a few yrs ago. My Da served in Vietnam and as such I have a soft spot for our Veterans. I decided I would bring a scratched name back to Idaho Falls from the Memorial and give it to their next of kin. I figured some folks never get there… anyway it was your name. I’m just now reading about your heroism and sacrifice. I’m moved Sir. I’ll find a descendent and give them your tribute. It’s been an honor to carry your name. Godspeed Sargent Thornton. Thank you.
