Sgt Wallace,

I think of you often eventhough I never knew you. I was stationed at Bagram AB Afghanistan when you were the first casualty I ever processed. I scheduled you for your flight home and made sure you were put on the aircraft. I do not remember the names of the others. You rest well my brother.

God tapped Daniel's shoulder and said "It's time to go.."Danny scratched his head and said "I don't know?? "I have a lot of people down here that I love.."God said gently" I need you above." Your people down here they'll be okay..We will be watching over them son,each and everyday.."God cradled our sweet Danny against his huge chest..Jesus wiped his brow tenderly..Mary whispered.."just rest.." He's with the angels now, in Heaven above, rejoicing and singing and basking in love..saying in the sweetest words ever spoken..You'll all be with me some day, may the circle be unbroken...R.I.P Danny

Prayer for Peace

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith:
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Amen

I did not know Sgt Daniel Wallace. I do know that I am grieved to learn of his passing and that I want to send my love and most sincerest and deepfelt prayers to his family and friends. I will pray for you as long as God gives me another breath to do so. I believe that all of our soldiers are the sons and daughters of every American. We are all so proud of each one of them. And yes, Daniel, we are so very proud of you. I am adding you to my list of someone I want to spend time getting to know when my turn comes to leave this earth and join you in that "better place" that Christ has gone to prepare for every one of us. Thank you for your life and the giving of your special life for the freedom of us all. God bless you and may you rest in peace now, son.

The Final Salute

“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.

This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to Sgt Daniel Wallace our Brother in Arms. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Dan. And to Dan it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the ultimate sacrifice he made in combat while serving the U.S. Army and his country. No greater love is shown than a man lay down his life for another. Dan, you are a brave Warrior, a true Patriot and a national Hero. With your passing, our Country has lost a National Treasure. We bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at ease. Rest in Peace.

On behalf of the 1,409 members of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion in Shreveport, Louisiana, I extend our sympathies and our condolences to Dan’s family and loved ones.

To the Wallace family,

I know there are no words to say, except how sorry I am for your loss. May you hold Daniels' memory in your heart and please remember he shall never be forgotten.

...For you every single soldier
Those who served so honorable
Your life was forever altered
While I’m home safe and free
I stand with grateful admiration
I stand respectful and so proud
I know I’m only a civilian
And I don’t even know if it’s allowed.

But I salute you; allow me the honor
to salute you with permission let me say
Even though I hold no rank know that from my heart
My humble gratitude comes from the deepest part.
I salute you.

November 13, 2008

Dan, I just wanted to say thank you for your brave and honorable service to a grateful nation, a nation in mourning for our fallen heroes. You like so many other soldiers chose to serve our nation when needed most and with your life you protected the very core of what America stands for. My nephew PFC Aaron J. Ward also made that sacrifice on 5/6/2008 when he was killed in action in Iraq. As I mourn for my nephew I mourn for you and every fallen soldier and know that you all will forever be in my thoughts and prayers, we as a nation will never forget you. I stand tall and salute you Dan and from the bottom of my heart I thank you for the nights we at home were able to sleep without fear and know that we are safe because you and your fellow soliders stood watch. To the Wallace family, words cannot express the pain we now share, but our families will forever have a bond and we will be thinking of Daniel and your family and will keep you in our thoughts & prayers. Please accept my heart felt condolences and my prayer that god help you cope with this tragic loss and may the memories of your HERO carry you through each day. From one Gold Star family to another!

I pray you will be guided by a higher power to give you peace, comfort and strength in this time.
