"Gone, but not forgotten. Still think of you often."
Rachel Lybrand of Elgin, SC

"To Kasper, friends, and family, you will never be forgotten my friend. Memories of you remain vivid, from watching you suffer through a scary movie in Korea, to watching you get pepper sprayed in NY. We had quite the group of friends back then. The memories of you live on.

For Nick. I saw your post below. I want you to know that he talked about you all the time, thought of you everyday, and loved you very much. If you would ever like some pictures, I have quite a few. Not many from NY, none from Iraq, but lots from Korea. I am very sorry for your loss and wish you would have had the chance to really know him and spend more time with him. He was a very hard working guy and loyal friend. My heart is with you."
Rachel of Elgin, SC

"PFC Dudkiewicz, I bought a bracelet @ Ranger Joe's when I was attending BOLC II @ Benning and your name was on it. I dont know you and I dont need to. But my brother, please, know, everyday, I look at this bracelet with your name on it and it reminds me of my soldiers and what a true hero is. Moreover, it reminds me of what giving your all for your country is and means. I carry you on my right arm everywhere I go. If no one other than your family and friends remember your name, I do soldier. You inspire me. May God enjoy your company until I can meet me and thank you for how you have touched my life someday. Hold me a seat anywhere in Heaven. I'll stand beside you anywhere, anytime, anyday.
