THE WALL OF FACES

Semper Fidelis, Corporal.

Dear CPL Earl William Cobbley Jr, 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

Earl, Although we never met, I just want you to know you are not forgotten. You gave the ultimate sacrifice, your life for what you believed in. Sleep well my friend, and thank you for protecting our freedoms.

Earl is buried at Golden Gate Nat Cem.

EARL WILLIAM COBBLEY JR, YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN. YOUR BROTHERS FROM LIMA CO 3RD BATTALION 5TH MARINES REMEMBER. SEMPER FI
