I saw a truck in Folsom today with writing on the back window "dedicated to the memory of Timothy W Brown LCpl USMC". I looked up your name, the man driving the truck looked to be of an age your father could be, perhaps he was your father. As we move a decade on out from these wars I remain forever grateful for men like yourself who had the patriotism and courage to join the military in a time of war and help to keep us free. I pray for comfort for the family you left behind.
