Sgt. Harold Bennett
Sgt. Bennett and I were captured together in South Vietnam on Dec 29, 1964 and in 1965 he was reportedly executed by the Viet Cong. He was elected into the US Army Ranger Hall of Fame this year. He also received numerous medals. A very brave veteran to be remembered forever.
Philippe A. Michaud
This tribute is in honor of my brother Philippe. He has served our country for 30 years. He is now retired but still works for the Army under a civilian contract. He and his wife now live in Stafford, VA.
Paul F. Icovitti
My husband Paul Icovitti proudly served in Viet Nam during 1968/69 with the 11th Armored Cavalry HHT Company 2nd Squadron. Paul lived a good life as a husband, Dad, and Grampy until he passed away of Sarcoma due to Agent Orange January 2012. We miss him; his strong love and guidance. God Bless all of our brave veterans who give their all to our great country.
Norman T Pease
He served on a aircraft carrier.
Norman Palmer
I will vote in honor of my father Norman Palmer who was a member of the Bangor Victory Platoon and was stationed aboard the USS Wasp. Unfortunately he would never discuss the events of the war with us but growing up I could tell the major impact it made on him. Since his death on Christmas Day 2004 I have found pictures of battles as well as the daily bulletins from aboard the Wasp that have filled in some gaps. My thanks to all veterans for everything they have done and seen. Dad was a proud man who felt joining the Navy at 17 was the right thing to do.
John R. Lewis
My Dad served in the U.S. Army during World War II from February 23, 1943 to April 24, 1946 as a PFC in the 464th Anti-Aircraft Artillery Auto-Weapons Battalion during the China-Burma-India Campaign. To my Dad, my Hero I miss you and love you - you are always in my heart. Thank you, Dad for your Military Service and Sacrifice for our freedoms. God Bless You.
Gerald E. Withee
He is a Proud Marine, I will miss him dearly. He is in great company, two brothers, his dad, one sister and his mom.
David W. Stuart Sr.
Once a Marine, always a Marine, proud to be an American. He taught me well, to follow in his footsteps of pride, honor and respect.
Clement Scala
This is a tribute to my dad. Not only did he serve as an Army sergeant in the Pacific Theater at the age of 18. He returned home to Portland only to enlist in the U.S. Navy and shipped out again to the Pacific for the Korean conflict. I am very proud of my dad. He continues to make me proud even today. Last year (2004) at the age of 83, dad traveled from Portland on his own to meet comrades in Warrick, Rhode Island and made the trek to Washington, D.C. for the WWII memorial services. In my eyes he is a true Maine hero.
