The little note at the bottom of this photo made me cry. It made Kim cry, and some other people I saw reading it, were also crying. You can't see what it says clearly, because even as I took this photo, somehow I didn't want to get to close to it, to pry too hard. The note is to one of the men killed in Vietnam, in which the woman writing it says "thank you for saving my dad's life"...There was more. But I was crying and needed to walk away, before I could read it all.
