The Best Way I Can Honor You

My name is Robert Howard Potter and I teach English at Canterbury School. In your honor, I offer an elective course in the fall titled "Literature of The Vietnam Conflict". As long as I teach here and students are sitting in the same classrooms where you once sat, I will do my best to make them aware of the conflict that took your life. The first thing I do every fall is introduce the class to you. Rest in peace.

Remembering An American Hero

Dear SP5 David Moy Burke Jr, 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
