You never returned from the conflict; you never got to learn why you and the many others were even over there; and you never got the honor that you deserved for staying there when you could have come home. I have missed you since 1966..and now that I am the last in our immediate family alive, I want to put it in writing that I am very proud of you. I will miss you forever.Love, Your Little Sis

My Uncle Ronnie fought as a US Army Special Forces Medic in Vietnam he was killed in 1967 long before I was born, but to this day he has affected a lot that I do. In 2005 I joined the US Army and went airborne soon after and was sent to Iraq in the fall of 2006. I wore my Uncles jump wings on my dog tags every day. I am sorry that I never had the chance to meet this man but to this day he is my hero and I try to live up to the things that he did.

He was the man I admired most in my life, completely honest, unselfish, and the very best husband, father, brother, son and friend anyone could ever hope for. He paid the ultimate price. He will always be remembered and loved.

Thank you for your proud service to the United Air Force.

My dad proudly served America and I'm honored to call my dad my hero for fighting for our freedom.

Dad thank you for serving our country and protecting us.

Dad and Papa we all love you forever.

This is to honor Ron and my other brother State Police officers serving in Iraq. God bless them.

Fought in the Argonne Forest and died at Fort McHenry February 14, 1919 from wounds received. He was brought home to be buried.

I am very proud to be your daughter. I am proud that you served your country. I only know some of what you went through. I love you very much.
