Never forgotten.

Semper Fortis

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from Pat is touching. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us...

I miss you still after all these years. Losing you is as painful now as it was the day I found out. I remember every detail about that horrible phone call. I will never forget you and never stop loving and missing you.

Dear QM3 Earnest Buckelew,
Thank you for your service as a Quartermaster 3rd Class. It is important for us all to acknowledge the sacrifices of those like you who answered our nation's call. Please watch over America, it stills needs your courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.
