The project started in February when a funeral home contacted Walters, the adjutant of Disabled American Veterans Mayes Country (Oklahoma) chapter, to let him know they had just found the markers after buying the business. They are the engraved brass headstones that can be ordered from the Department of Veterans Affairs to indicate someone’s service. In this case, the stones had never been placed, some having been ordered as far back as 1974.

Actually, ! I play Taps every night over the lake and may you hear the echo for all our brothers and sisters that never made it home and who paid that ultimate sacrifice for everyone's freedom! Happy Memorial Day to all my brothers and sisters and a special Welcome Home to all my Vietnam Warriors!

"So what did you do?"
I woke up, and decided again, the faces I see, screams I hear, names I will never forget will not make me choose poorly today... I decided I still want to wake up tomorrow and remember.
