Honoring Arkansas Veterans who Died in Vietnam
Remembrance posted by Billy M. Brown
He was a Navy Seal. He had a previous enlistment with the Navy, then an enlistment with the U.S. Army where he first earned his jump wings. He then returned to the Navy and completed the strenous Navy Seal Training. May his sacrifice not be forgotten.


 
NATIVE AMERICAN PRAYER
Remembrance posted by Chris Spencer
It is said a man hasn't died as long as he is remembered. This prayer is a way for families, friends and fellow veterans to remember our fallen brothers and sisters. Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die
Thank you Mate
