To a fallen Dukes.
If you are anything like your brother, I wish I could have met you. You exemplified Duty, Honor, Courage, and Country. Your memory will never be forgotten.

For he today, that sheds his blood with me, shall always be my brother.” Rest in peace brave soldier, you have not been forgotten. (W.Shakespeare) May God Bless you, for your Sacrifice!!!

I Wish I Could Have Known You
Dear Bennie, You never knew me, but I am very aware of you and your sacrifice for this country. Your brother, Toby, is my Godfather. I just wanted to say thank you for your service and for paying the Ultimate Sacrifice. I visited your grave a few weeks ago and will watch over it as long as I live. From one generation of Dukes to the other, I say Thank You.

NEVER FORGOTTEN
FOREVER REMEMBERED
"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....
Take what they have left and 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...."
Quote from a letter home by Maj. Michael Davis O'Donnell
KIA 24 March 1970. Distinguished Flying Cross: Shot down and Killed while attempting to rescue 8 fellow soldiers surrounded by attacking enemy forces.
We Nam Brothers pause to give a backward glance, and post this remembrance to you, one of the gentle heroes lost to the War in Vietnam:
Slip off that pack. Set it down by the crooked trail. Drop your steel pot alongside. Shed those magazine-ladened bandoliers away from your sweat-soaked shirt. Lay that silent weapon down and step out of the heat. Feel the soothing cool breeze right down to your soul ... and rest forever in the shade of our love, brother.
From your Nam-Band-Of-Brothers

Thanks
Hello, this is part of the Gridley High School Posting Project. I am a senior at Gridley High School. Gridley is a small town located in central Illinois. There are 30 students in my class. Thank you for your time.
You are very appreciated for the bravery you dedicated to this great nation. You risked your life to defend our country and for that you deserve all the recognition in the world! You will never be forgotten.
Thanks again T.J.

Dukes of South Carolina. 1 year and a staff sergeant is impressive. Could he have offered more? Yes. Could he have offered less? Absolutely.
