THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. For more than twenty years I, too, have participated in the Wreaths Across America ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery alluded to by KR and consider it a privilege to honor these heroes in some small way.

The “Friends of Rocky Versace” remember one of the 68 * men whose name is chiseled into stone beneath a Gold Star at the Captain Rocky Versace Plaza and Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Sergeant Ray Burmaster Browne, U.S. Army, U.S. Special Forces, on what would’ve been his 78th birthday – 17 February 2021.

* 68th name - for MIA 1LT Larry Lilly - added on 15 November 2018

During a "clandestine, spontaneous happening" at the CPT Rocky Versace Plaza and Vietnam Veterans Memorial on Memorial Day 2020, the "Friends of Rocky Versace" remembered Sergeant Ray Burmaster Browne, U.S. Army, U.S. Army Special Forces (USASF), as well as Alexandria's 67 other Vietnam War Fallen Heroes. A video of the "happening" is available for viewing at this link/URL:

We can never truly repay the debt we owe our fallen heroes. Rest in peace
SGT. Browne, you are not forgotten.

Sergeant Ray Burmaster Browne, Served with Detachment A-416 (My Dien II), Company D, 5th Special Forces Group, United States Army Special Forces Vietnam, Military Assistance Advisory Group Vietnam (MAAGV), United States Army Vietnam.
