Remembering An American Hero

Dear PFC Peter Colicchio, 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

Neighbor

I recently returned from a trip to Washington, DC including the Vietnam Memorial where I touched the past etched in stone with a sad heart. Growing up on Hilltop Drive I remember the occasional game of stick ball in the street, and your friends Art, Tim, and Charlie. I was a few years younger but I looked up to you all. The times I got to join in I was so excited. You went into the army to train to become a mechanic, but that didn’t come to pass, only your life did. When you were reported missing I will never forget how I felt. When you were no longer missing, but KIA, it taught me hard lessons about life. I couldn’t go to your funeral because it scared me to think that my turn in Vietnam might come soon too and I wasn’t ready to make your sacrifice. I was lucky and didn’t have to do that, but in your having done so I have forever looked at all war as something that leaves hurt, loss and pain in its wake. To this day I can not support war of any kind, but I do honor those like you who have given your lives to teach us that. It’s sad that we forget so soon. To your mom and sister Pam, after all these years…you are still remembered.

A Cousin I Didn't Get To Know Well

Peter Colicchio is a cousin of mine (How distantly related is still not known). I knew him and his parents, Marie & Pete, only as my Grandmother's cousins' son. I was only 12 when "Petie" died in Viet Nam. His death destroyed his mother and she has never been the same. Rest in peace.
