Box 4 0 8 Allendale, NJ07401 USA As a Mother My son at 3 years came to me and said that he knew a soldier named "Walt Huffman" and that he was 20 and died in VietNam. We went to the wall years later and found his name (I knew that it would be there). We have thought of him since, and as a Mother I feel a kinship of sorts as my son seems to have a link. He and his family are always in our thoughts and prayers. For all of the lost, and for Walt, God Bless!
