honoring you.....
There is a place
Not far from here
Where spirits walk
And heroes live
And honor still resides.
It is a wall
With names inscribed
Of those who served
When they were asked...
The brothers of my youth.
I go there still
To walk and think
About my life,
And what I've done since
And things that might have been.
There is a debt
I can't repay
Too many lives were spent.
And one man's life cannot suffice
To make their deaths worthwhile.
But there is hope
In the memory
Of those we leave behind
Who know the price that freedom brings
Who can carry on in kind.
I send you now
To touch a name
So the vision can be passed
Remember there is honor still
It is for you to see it lasts.
They are not dead
And have a wish
As all old soldiers do
The reflection you see before you now
Is their wish to live in you.

Buddy, you were one of my best friends at ABAC. you would come to Brunswick with me and I would go to Blacksher with you. when I learned of your death, I was so shocked and overwhelmed with sadness from your death, to this day I remember where I was and what I was doing at the time of the news. You missed a great and fun life my brother. With your drive ambition and brains, can't forget your great sense of humor, you would have done very well in life. I still miss you man, what a waste of a good man and friend. I volunteered for Viet Nam immediately to see if it was worth your sacrifice, it wasn't. I'LL be back out to the cemetery to visit with you. Rest in peace my brother, until we meet again, love you man ??

Remembering An American Hero
Dear PFC Ralph Traylor Woodall Jr, 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
