A Fellow Veteran
This Vietnam Vet., is undoubtedly one of the bravest Americans, that's ever lived! Never, in American history, has this nation, been so against its military and it's, never happened since. He could have burned his draft card, remained in school, or defected to Canada, but he chose to bravely ANSWER THE CALL, made by his Nation. Meanwhile, the pubic held blame, against him and his fellow soldiers, for the decisions made by the politicians, of the day. This brave individual stood, with his fellow soldiers and gave, everything he had. His sacrifice then, has made America and our freedom stronger. My Fellow Solider, today, is the very day, you had made the ultimate supreme sacrifice. You gave, your life, for your country, So many years ago, and so far, from your home and loved ones. A fellow veteran, pays tribute today, to your memory, your bravery, your honor and your commitment, to duty and freedom. Thank you, for answering the call. May you rest well, in Gods loving embrace, Brave Solider. For you Sir, ARE a TRUE American hero whose sacrifice, has made a difference. Today, you are remembered, by a fellow veteran and proud American. Tomorrow, you shall not be forgotten, by a now grateful nation, because in the rising and setting, of the sun, we shall remember you. In the blowing, of the wind and the chill, of the winter, we shall remember you. In the opening of the buds, the blueness of the sky, the rustle of the leaves and the blanketing of the snow, we shall remember you. When we are weary, lost and sick at heart, when we have joys to share, we shall remember you. For as long as we live, you too, shall live, for you are a part of us always. May God bless you and bring peace, to your friends, family and loved ones.

Final Mission of CPL Ervil T. Bray
On July 29, 1967, CPL Ervil T. Bray was with his squad in an armored personnel carrier on a combat operation in Vietnam. The APC is a light-weight vehicle which moves on tracks rather than wheels and has armored protection on all sides. It is operational on both land and water and is primarily to transport infantry personnel from one point to another. CPL Bray’s work was that of a rifleman in armored cavalry. At 11:00 AM, the vehicle was struck by an enemy rocket with a high explosive charge designed to penetrate armored vehicles. CPL Bray incurred fatal wounds and died before he could be removed to a hospital.
Remembering An American Hero
Posted on 7/28/13 - by Curt Carter
Dear CPL Ervil Thomas Bray, sir As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned. May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you. ith respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir Curt Carter
