I was that which others did not want to be.
I went where others feared to go,
And did what others failed to do.
I asked nothing from those who gave nothing,
And reluctantly accepted the thought of
Eternal loneliness…should I fail.
I have seen the face of terror;
Felt the stinging cold of fear;
And enjoyed the sweet taste of a moments love.
I have cried, pained, and hoped…but most of all,
I have lived times others would say were
Best forgotten
At least someday I will be able to say that
I was proud of
What I was…
A SOLDIER"
D. Burt of Rhode Island

"Private Anderson, goodbye soldier and thank you. You are my hero."
Bill of Houston, Texas

"Mori, We just wanted you to know that Joey and I and our children loved Danny. He was more than a friend to us and our children, he was family. Danny was one of the first people to make me and my children feel welcome in Georgia. He was not too "manly" to play dolls with our young daughters or to joke around with our son. Danny blessed our family and we are thankful we had the chance to know him and to know you. Joey feels blessed to have been Danny's NCO and to have served in the Army with him. We pray for you and your family every day. With love and prayers, Joey, Sabrina, Billy, Stephanie, Sara, and Lauren Schuller"
Joey and Sabrina Schuller of Fort Stewart, GA

"To Patti and the rest of your family,

All gave some, some gave all. There is no way to properly thank you for having such a brave and wonderful soldier in your family. I know the burden of your loss must be great, but please know this, Danny is a true hero.
No one has expressed my feelings or those of your fellow Americans as eloquently as Abraham Lincoln...
"I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save.

I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.""
Dawn Borden of Richmond Hill, Ga
