THE WALL OF FACES

Here it is June 2023 and you still pop into my mind without warning.
I think about how much you ment to me and how much you have been missed by family and friends.
Getting old and hoping some day we meet again on the other side. ♡ Love you Vic ♡

I was a freshman at Christian Brothers Military high. Vic was a senior and my squad leader. I was friends with his nephew Paul. 53 years later, I still remember you. Thank you for your sacrifice.

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

That first picture of Vic is from his high school day at Christian Brothers Military High School in St. Louis MO. I was a classmate of Vic's there and later at the U of Missouri -St. Louis. Vic was a typical kid from the 60's who died doing great things. God bless!!

Dear PFC Victor Cartier,
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 strength, courage and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.
