Hi, my name is Nicole and I'm a Junior at Lake Central High School. My History class is searching for information on all the men and women who lost their lives in Vietnam. We are going to take all of the information and put it into a Vietnam project called The Gold Star Honor Roll Book. If you have any information on Clifford Henry Scheck, I would appreciate it greatly if you could find time to contact me.

Remembering An American Hero
Posted on 7/12/15 - by Curt Carter ccarter02@earthlink.net
 
Dear SSGT Clifford Henry Scheck, 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. With respect, Sir Curt Carter
 
Thank You

I am a junior at Gridley High School. I am doing a project for a U.S. History class that involves reading about some of the people who sacrificed their lives during the Vietnam War. It is our goal as a class to write 1,000 remembrances or more on those who don't have remembrances. It would be nice to see that all 58,220 people would have remembrances someday. I would like to make a special remembrance to Clifford Henry Scheck who gave his life during the Vietnam War and died a hero on July 12, 1968. Thank you so much again and may God bless you and your family.
Sincerely,
Kelsey Zehr
