THE WALL OF FACES

Dear PFC Larry Wilson, Thank you for your service as an Infantryman. I researched you on the 56th anniversary of the start of your tour. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Valentine's Day is soon. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance, and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

Private First Class Larry Eugene Wilson, Served with Company A, 4th Battalion, 47th Infantry Regiment, 9th Infantry Division, United States Army Vietnam.

Dear PFC Larry Eugene Wilson, 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, Sir

Curt Carter
