Mr Hosea, you and my father were together on that fateful day on October 31, 1969 ... his name was SFC Thomas J Smallwood Jr , Panel 16W Line 10. I wish you both as well as everyone else would have come home safe. I will always remember your name because your rubbing from the Wall will be on my wall with my fathers'. Always in my prayers ...
