There has seldom been a day during the past 39 years that I haven't thought about my buddies who were killed in Vietnam. The following is a remembrance that I left for one of them that I posted on The Virtual Wall. They will never be forgotten.
It's been a long time
Posted for: JOHN ALLEN DENNIS:
It's hard to believe that you were killed 33 years ago yesterday. Where has the time gone? I never dreamed that a young black man from St. Louis would have such an impact on my life. I can still picture your face and that big smile as if you were sitting in front of me this very moment. There is hardly a day that goes by that I don't think of you, Sgt. Hitchcock and Cpl. Cunningham. In fact, I have the rubbings of your names from The Wall framed and displayed in my office at work. I still get goose bumps whenever I hear "My Girl" by the Temptations. God, how you loved that song. I just wanted you to know that you and all of the others who paid the ultimate price will never be forgotten. Rest in peace my friend. Semper Fi
Let us not forget, but support our troops in service today. But remember that Memorial Day is for those brave men and women that have given their lives in service to this great country.
