Thank you so very much for sharing the photo and info for my brother. It touches my heart to realize there are people out there that still care. My heartfelt thank you to all that have served and continue to serve our country. I was a teenager when my brother was KIA in Vietnam, I am 62 years old now and the feeling is still the same, raw, painful and a deep void in my heart that I can't seem to fill. Seeing the photo you posted of my brother made me smile and brought back some of the good memories we shared. Thank you again.

Am looking for people that remember my brother. 1LT Albert Royce Dismuke. 9th Infantry 2/60 B company. Nov 67 till Mar 68. KIA 03 Mar 1968.

***** You are my brother and I miss you. You are in my thoughts daily, even after so many years. The void left by your death hasn't healed, only widened. There are so many things I want to share with you, my husband, my children, my grandchildren, the joys and successes of my life. They would be so much sweeter were you here to share them with. I just have to hope you know that you know how very much I love you and miss you, my big brother. I went to The Wall once a few years ago to say goodbye to you because I never had the chance when they sent your body to Germany for burial. But when I got to The Wall I found that I can never really say goodbye to you. You will be with me forever, everywhere I go, everything I do, every decision I make, you are right there with me, although I can't see you or touch you I know you are there. You died for our country and people say that makes you a hero. But you were a little sister's hero long before you went to war and you still are. I love you, my brother.
