THE WALL OF FACES

I was there when he was hit giving directions for us to do, I was just a grunt who was given a radio to put on my back, his call sign was Bravo 1 actual, and my call sign was Bravo 1-1, SEMPER FI Lt.

Second Lieutenant John Bruce Capel, Served with Company B, 1st Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

Dear Lt John Capel,
Thank you for your service a an Infantry Officer. It is another autumn, and time has passed since this war. 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.

Cannot believe it has been 50 years since Bruce left us. He was such an important part of my family and the Glenbard West community.

To-day marks 50 years since Bruce Capel made the ultimate sacrifice.He is remembered,especially that big smile.
