Dana Wait Admirer Louisville CO 80027 USA Dear John Robert Allison,
It truly breaks my heart to see your family write to you when you never were able to meet them. Fighting in a war, let alone Vietnam is something I won’t ever understand. I appreciate your courage as a nineteen year old for the decision to protect our country. I would feel proud to be that courageous.
As it turns out, you have the same birthday as me, and you are also around my same age. Picturing myself in the situation you were in, I know I wouldn’t have been strong enough to mentally get through it. I truly admire you.

Scott Jackson sj0305@bellsouth.net Nephew 615 Walden Shores Lane Brunswick, GA 31525 USA John, Thanks for your sacrifice-You are not forgotten. You don't know me but you're my uncle. Well, my step-uncle. My mother married your brother Lee. I guess you know your mother and father have passed away? Your name is mentioned from time to time at family gatherings by your brothers and sister. About how crazy you rode your horse and about the car you built before you went to Vietnam. I have two rubbings of your name from The Wall. You probably don't know about that. It's a memorial dedicated to all the military persons that died in Vietnam. The real one is in Washington, D.C. There are others that sorta travel around and are smaller. I've been to the one in Washington, D.C. It's really quiet there. Semper Fidelis, John. Scott Saturday, May 24, 2003
