THE WALL OF FACES

I recently moved and was going through things when I found my MIA bracelet which reads Lt. Col. L.W. Whitford, Jr. 11-2-69. I remember the day I got the bracklet in 1979. It still touches my heart now just as it did on that day. I have it on my desk now and see it everyday. I am 73 years old now, but when I look at the bracelet it takes me back in time. God bless all our soldiers and the family of Lt. Col. Whitford.

Bracelet

I also wore Colonel Whitford’s MIA bracelet for years, always hoping that he would somehow get home to his family. This is the first time I’ve seen photos of him. I’ve thought of him often over the years. Sending love to all.

honoring you.....

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The many remembrances from those who wear/wore your MIA bracelet are touching and reflect their admiration and respect for you. It remains my fervent hope you will be returned home after the passage of so many years.

Never forget

I would like to let the family of Lt Col L W Whitfield know that after all of these years, I think of your family member often and will never forget him. I was 10 years old in 1970 when I received my POW bracelet in Dallas, Texas. The bracelet, after eventually breaking, certainly did it’s job of remembrance. Although young, I have carried his name in my heart for over 50 years. God bless you and your family.
