I do not know much information about Johnny Harper. I know his name is on the Memorial Wall because I saw it in the early 1980's when I visited the Wall. I live in the same hometown that Johnny grew up in. I did not know him well, but was in classes with two of his siblings. I know this is not much of a tribute, but I do want him recognized here. He paid the ultimate price for my freedom and I owe it to him to add him to this list.
