Not sure what to say?

What a wonderful man. I've just finished your book and am struck by your philosophy on life and incredible humility. Your description of war, particularly of D-day, helped me appreciate my own grandfather's experiences of which he could speak little. I offer you my sincere gratitude.

Hi Ray,
I was not fortunate enough to know you personally, but I read your wonderful book and watched you in several TV news features. I felt as if I had made a new friend.

I just want to thank you and honor your memory. Your courage, bravery, unselfishness and resiliency defined a generation. Even though you would deny it, you were a hero-- an American hero.
Thank you for your service, patriotism and compassion.
May You Rest In Peace!

God bless you Ray. Thank you so much for the lives that you saved in the war even though you were going through wounds of your own from the German soldier's on that Beach !! I was glad to see you made it to 100 years of age. I was glad to see that Sam Elliot told your story about the Fighting on Omaha Beach!

My hero

Well done my good and faithful servant.

To one of the nicest neighbors I ever had!

Ray Lambert, what an amazing and inspiring man. Thank You.

What an inspiring story. I happened to walk by a table in our local library and noticed his book. My father-in-law was also a medic at Normandy and I was interested to learning more about the bravery and incredible strength these men brought with them to save lives. My father in law was on the older side at 36 but made it home to his family. God bless Ray Lambert and his family, what a great memory and a true American hero.

My dad served in North Africa and Sicily. Who knows? Maybe they ran across each other? God rest your soul. A hero among heroes.
