THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from your parents is especially poignant. May you rest in eternal peace.

I met Ricky the summer of '61 when my USAF family moved in across the street and he rode his bike up to the curb and asked if I wanted to come out and play. We spent 2 yrs together every day, hiking the woods and coming of age, bike riding, swimming, talking about girls and learning to smoke. I moved back to Germany but we wrote constantly, and visited when I came stateside. Our last visit was just after he finished boot camp and we both knew he was going to Vietnam. If I saw him at the curb today, I'd still want to come out and play. RIP my best friend ever.

Dear PFC Richard Burnett,
I hope your photo gets put here because this is a wall of faces, and yours is missing. Thank you for your service as a Rifleman. 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.
