I believe that every person that died in Viet Nam should be on this The Virtual Wall.

I am just a admirer.

A Note from The Virtual Wall

SP4 Ervin Spain died in the bitter fighting for Hill 875. Two Medals of Honor, three Distinguished Service Crosses, and numerous Silver and Bronze Stars were awarded the men who fought there between 19 and 23 November 1967 - but at least 130 Americans died there as well, with hundreds more wounded.

A summary of the battle and a listing of the men who died
during the fighting may be found on The Virtual Wall's
Hill 875 Memorial
