The photo details the back of my utility trailer. I decided to make the trailer a rolling memorial to my roommate, A.D. Benson, when we were at The Basic School at Quantico, VA. I have had considerable positive response on the trips taken between Arizona and Indiana. One night we stopped at Joplin, Mo. and the next morning I found the following note on my window.
Sir,
Though I was not born when your started your time in Viet Nam, I wish to thank you for the sacrifices you made for our Great Country.
Thank you for fighting for us when politicians lacked the honor to fight for you. Thank you for sacrificing for us when many of your own countryment tried to dishonor that sacrifice.
On behalf of my 1 and 1/2 year old son, my wife, any future children of my family and myself I thank you for fighting that we may know freedom.
Thank you for fighting to bring that freedom to others. May God bless you and may he bless the United States.
The letter was unsigned, but I thought it fitting and should be included in my tribute to A. D. Benson.
(I am also sending a second photo of the trailer) You can use which ever works best.
Thank you very much. Larry D. Behle
