THE WALL OF FACES

We can tell Memorial Day is coming with the wreaths that hang on front doors, and the small red, white, and blue American flags that line the grass covered graves of the Veterans’ cemeteries all acrosse America. One of those graves is yours, and we honor your life and your memory on this Memorial day.

May we never forget your example and the true cost of our freedoms. You with those who love you paid that cost, and America will be forever indebted.

With respect, always.

Purchased in 1971 most likely, my freshman year at Indiana State University. Thank you for your service, Sir

Back in 1983 I was asked to wear a bracelet of an MIA soldier. The name was Captain John M. Brutcher. I wore it in hopes that someday he’d come home. I wore it for so long that it couldn’t be read any longer. A man that I never met was a man that the least I could do in repayment of his sacrifice was know who he was and be able to repeat his name.. it’s been over 50 years since he went MIA but he always be a part of my life. Thank you for your sacrifice!

Never Forget.

HOOAH

This year, as every year for many, my wife finishes the wreaths she makes for every Memorial Day and our American flag is raised in remembrance, as we observe this somber national holiday. You and our loved ones whose names also are inscribed on the Vietnam Memorial are in our hearts. My family and I will never forget the cost of our freedoms, and the men and women who have and continue to step forward to keep America safe.
With respect, always.
