On the Eleventh Day, On the Eleventh Hour, on the Eleventh Month, in this year 2006, a small group of DMZ War Veterans will be at the Korean War Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., to give Memorial to those who served in Korea, and give Memorial to Those Who Were Lost Forever In Korea.
We are asking you to help with that Memorial Service on Veterans Day 2006, in Washington, D.C.
At 12:01 AM, November 11, 2006, in the darkness at the Memorial, we will begin to read Letters To The Lost. No bands, no honor guard, no cameras, no politicians, just one person at the Memorial reading Letters To The Lost until the DMZ Veterans Ceremony at 11 AM.
Those Letters will come from you. Please help.
Each one of you has someone you lost in Korea.
You are a veteran who lost a friend you can't forget. Write him a letter and tell him how you have lived your life. Tell him about your successes and your failures like you would tell him if he had lived and you were sharing a sunset in peace on a lake in Minnesota.
You are a wife who lost her husband. Write him a letter and tell him what happened to you. And how you have lived your life.
You are a son or daughter who never met your father. Write him and tell him how you have lived your life without him.
You are a grandchild who only knows your grandfather from pictures on the mantel. Tell him how are today.
You are a son or a daughter or a husband of a woman who died. Tell her about your life and what happened to you.
Make this a Veterans Day like no other in our history.
Write a Letter To The Lost.
Send your letter to:
Korean War Project P.O. Box 180190 Dallas, TX 75218-0190
We will publish every letter on the Korean War Project.
Please help us to Remember. We don't have time to waste.
Hal Barker Founder - Korean War Veterans Memorial, Washington, D.C.
