THE WALL OF FACES

I bought my pow bracelet when I was 12 in Fort Bragg Nc....I wore it all the time....My uncle served in Vietnam and the first Iraq war...I have a rubbing from the Vietnam wall of Reginald from my senior trip in D.C. I never forgot about him...I am now 40 years old and it's so cool that I can see his photo on the internet...he will forever be in my prayers!

I did not know you, but your name hung on the wall of my house growing up.

I did not know you, but my dad wears a bracelet with your name on it every day.

I did not know you, but touched your name on the Vietnam Memorial

I did not know you, but know you are an American Hero.

Dear WO Reginald David Cleve, 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

Thanks for the things you taught me about flying Hueys.
Thanks for all the good laughs.
Thanks for all the things you did for me while while I was off flying status.
Thanks for teaching me to be more tolerant and thoughtful of others.
Thanks for letting me shoot your grease gun out the window while we were flying down the coast.
