WILLIAM DAVID PORT
 

Janet  Mosley
SOME ONE WHO CARES
GAVE MORE THAN REQUIRED
He gave so much, suffered, then died for his fellow bro's. The enemey was not nice to our POWS. This man went through so much more in that camp before he died. God bless him for he is home now. Bless his family. I cried when reading his story. I lost a cousin who died from his wounds within 2 days in 1967 but thank god it was in field hospital.

REFLECTIONS FROM THE MOVING WALL". I am a monument to a black period in this countries history.I am the Vietnam wall.,composed to two angled granite walls,inscribed with the names of fifty eight thousand,one hundred thirty four American men and women who died in hell (that was Vietnam) Many people come to see me. strangely they come mostly in silence-old people,young people,children,mothers,fathers,widows,and veterans.all for reasons of their own.they bring gifts,pictures,letters,flowers,poems and cigarettes.the letters speak of grief and loneliness and regret.they ask forgiveness.they are an out pouring of pain.the people softly touch names on my face.they water my grass with tears.then they leave in silence and I hope in peace.for I am more than two stone walls.I am a thank you from a nation that forgot.I am a long past due apology.I am healing for wounds too long left untended.I am a tribute paid to fallen warriors.I AM THE VIETNAM WALL. "America has forgotten the wars.will she remember her warriors"? You may be gone , BUT YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN.

This man was a hero. He has done what many would not do beyond the call of duty. In fact even I wouldn't have done what he did. I now pray and remember all the BRAVE men and women who fought in the Vietnam War every flag day. William sacrificed his body in the line of duty. I salute him. Rest in Peace my fellow American.
