A letter from David J. Gonzales:
While at Roseburg VA hospital undergoing treatment for substance
abuse and PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), I happened to have
the honor of viewing the Replica of the Vietnam Memorial wall that
traveled through Roseburg. The names of my brothers and sisters etched
upon it inspired me to write this letter that very evening.
Upon this wall was the name of, "David James Ohm," whom I
became very close to during my tour of Vietnam in 1968. In July, 1968,
while we were on a recon patrol my friend David, was killed This letter
is dedicated to David and the 58,000 plus and one not yet found.
David James Ohm
To Remember, To Reflect, To Heal
From: David to David With Love
Today I went to see you. At first it was from afar. I felt my heart race, my pulse quicken, and tears formed and
streamed from each eye. I told myself, "No, the time is not right." "Later" I said, and as I walked away from you, I heard
acalling from behind, "come back! Please! you don't have to be afraid. There is no need to be scared. I turned and looked
back, and there you were. I know it was you, or him, or her calling to me. Later 1 said. I will come back .
Later came and as my veteran friend and myself walked towards you, again my heart raced and my pulse quickened,
but now my whole body trembled from head to toe. Your arms extended towards me, and I wondered with the feeling
I had, was this how it felt to die and go to heaven? And as I walked towards you, up the green trail to you, I felt as though
I was coming home. At first it was hard to touch your name, because I had not seen you for so many years. Though
you were never out of my mind. I wondered then just how many of our family had been to see you.
Now I begin to feel the nearness of you. I walk with reverence and greet the rest of our family, they reached out to
touch me as I walked by. I knew that I had forgotten some of your names, but no matter you were always in my heart
And now as I neared my favorite Brother, and saw how he had somehow placed himself near the ent end of the line
because he knew that I wanted to see everyone. My heart began to race even faster and my pulse quickened even more.
And there he stood, the one I had not seen for so many years but carried in my heart with mixed emotions for so very
ong. I reached out to grasp him and I heard him whisper in my ear, It is not your fault for not coming to see me for
all these years." "I knew that someday you would come here to find me."
I felt a peace that I had not known before, wash over me, and I heard my Brother say to me. "Go and be with your
Family again and live once more as we did long ago, without any fears...in life. As I walked away, I turned and saw
you again. "The Wall" and all my brothers and sisters names etched upon it. And my Brothers spirit, as did mine, soared
toward the heavens, free at last to live again.
