THE WALL OF FACES

Chief Warrant Officer Charles Victor Wood, Served with the 219th Aviation Company, 223rd Aviation Battalion, 17th Aviation Group, 1st Aviation Brigade, United States Army Vietnam.

"In my brother's case you will see him in both Marine and Army uniforms. He was in the Marine Corps first (1961-1965) and then went into the Army (1968-1971) for flight school. He was shot down three weeks after he arrived in country (June 1970), and died 12 years later as a direct result of his wounds."

Remembering my friend and flight school classmate, Charles V. “Vic” Wood who died as a result of wounds suffered during the Vietnam War.
Rest in peace my friend, you will forevermore be remembered as a true American hero

Dear CW2 Charles Victor Wood, 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

Vic, I am forever thankful for your service to this nation and to your sister Lynette for her dedication to you and to our family. I will forever love you as a brother, your cousin Steve.
