THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from your wife Elaine are especially poignant and reflect the anguish experienced by so many who lost loved ones in this war. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us…..

Thanks for serving our country. So sorry you did not make it back home. God bless the family you left behind. Rest in peace, brave soldier.

This year 2020 it has been 50 years since I lost the love of my life. Sgt. Ronald J. Chapman was KIA on 6 February 1970. I have a nephew named after him, and a granddaughter Named Roni Marie who was born on 5 February 1989. Ronnie is alive in our hearts and our conversations. Somehow, he never really left. We are blessed to have been a part of his life .

Was a buddy of mine in Saint Gabriel's High and a fellow corpsman in the 60s.
Re-enlisted as a marine in the 70s. RIP Ron.

Sergeant Ronald James Chapman, Served with Combined Action Platoon 2-7-4 (CAP 2-7-4), Combined Action Company 2-7 (CACO 2-7), 2nd Combined Action Group, Combined Action Program, Third Marine Amphibious Force.
