Private Harry Osbourne Adams, died at 16 years old, April 9, 1917 in the Battle of Vimy Ridge. He was my great Uncle and 2 years underage when he enlisted in the army.

My brother and best friend. He enlisted a year before 9/11 and served in the Persian Gulf. His military service did not define him...his empathetic spirit did. He lost the battle to depression and PTSD in January, 2020. He was a beautiful artist.

Private Andrés Gomez, U.S. Army, Killed in Action November 22, 1944. Andrés survived D-Day and numerous battles during the liberation of France. After recovering from wounds received during the Allied drive to Paris, Andrés volunteered to rejoin his unit as they began fighting into Nazi Germany. He was killed the day before Thanksgiving Day during the final campaign to defeat Nazi forces west of the Rhine River. He was my mother’s father, and his sacrifice dramatically affected her childhood and has continued to play prominently in our family history. His name carries on in my son, Elliott Andrés, age 16.
Soon after his 21st birthday in 2005, Lance Corporal Nicholas Bloem, 装备的, was killed in action when his transport hit an IED during the Iraq War. He remains forever in the hearts of family and friends.
In loving memory of Petty Officer 1st Class Jeremy Gourley. Gone too soon from depression. In remembrance of the hundreds of service members who lose their lives each day to this horrible illness. ♥️高飞AT1.
Naval pilot, Commander Harley H. Hall, shot down Jan 27, 1973, over North Vietnam. He is considered POW/MIA and the last pilot shot down before the cease fire was signed that day. He commanded the Blue Angels and was one of the groomsmen in my parents wedding party. My mother wore his MIA bracelet for years.
