Trooper Duckworth,
On today, the 60th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a LEO but for our Country as well when you served with the USAAF during WW II. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

He was my my only uncle. I always think of him on April 19th as I was born on his birthday. He survived 64 missions as a tail-gunner on a Flying Fortress during WWII. The memorial is nice but the age of death (32) is incorrect as he was age 42 when he was killed.

You were my father's friend. I was 9 years old when the news of your death came over the TV. I went and got my father and told him about it. 11 years later I joined the Police Department. I don't recall meeting you, but you must have been a good man if you were my father's friend.
