THE WALL OF FACES

DEAR PFC ALFRED,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AS A MARINE GRUNT. AT ONLY 18, YOU WERE JUST A KID.
REST IN PEACE AND SEMPER FI.

I Would like to remember you in a collection of stories that I'm writing called A Circle of Soldiers. You are one of 31 soldiers to die in Vietnam from Colquitt County, Georgia. I hope that your family and friends will contact me as others have done. We would like to establish an exhibit at our local museum. Thank you so much for your service and sacrifice.

Dear PFC Bruce Crocklin Alfred, 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

Semper Fi Marine.

Bruce is buried at Woodlawn Cemetery is Moultrie, GA.
