Pat's Comment (Webmaster and Veteran): I want to visit "The Wall" someday. I think everyone should.

Here's a quote taken from http://thewall-usa.com/

"If you are able, save for them a place inside of you and save one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go. Be not ashamed to say you loved them, though you may or may not have always. Take what they have taught you with their dying and keep it with your own. And in that time when men decide and feel safe to call the war insane, take one moment to embrace those gentle heroes you left behind.
Major Michael Davis O'Donnell
1 January 1970
Dak To, Vietnam
Listed as KIA February 7, 1978

A close friend of mine was a medic in Vietnam. He visited the wall. He cried there.

  • Another good reminder from Mike & Team. Really gives pause - something to remember each and every year. Brings to mind my late uncle Air Force Full Coronal Lloyd Hightower who was shot down over Vietnam, but luckily was rescued & recovered, serving on for years following. What actually brought him down was his mail & ID Stolen several years ago. He stressed out big time dealing with the damage & went straight downhill, passing on just following everything cleaned up. He stated at the time: "This is an enemy without ID, You don't really know who to be aware of." Something our men and women are facing daily overseas even today. Let's all give them a warm thought on a daily basis. Remember 911 & how that felt? Other country's are feeling that daily. Glad to be free & born in the USA!, but not taking it for granted;-)
