Today at the Winona Cemetery in Tualatin there was a Memorial tribute going on at the same time that you typed your story, and once again Brian Bushnell's name was read aloud. You're invited to attend this annual tribute held at 11AM every Memorial Day. Scott, Thank you for sharing that story of how you honor Brian Bushnell on Memorial Day.

I didn't have any connection to the war at all. No family members of mine were ever involved in the war. I was really moved by all those names. I was wondering what that must have been like for those soldiers. So many years have passed since the Vietnam war and I wondered were these brave souls being remembered.?? So I went up to the wall and scaned it. I just picked a name. Not really knowing anything about the person. My intention was to randomly pick someone who I would honor every memorial day. Just privately light a candel or a thought or prayer for peace for this particular soul. I picked Brian L. Bushnell. I did not know anything about him or his history. I just wanted to remember the honor of him. Every year on memorial day I would think.. You are not forgotton. I honor you on this day. I have done that for years. Today I woke up and on this cloudy memorial day 2011 I had my thought of going to the Vietnam wall in Portland. I know it sounds a bit strange knowing I have no connection to Brian or anything to do with the Vietnam war but I always feel compelled to do so. But today the thought of hey with all this technology why dont I look up Brian L Bushnell. To my surprise I found your website. Knowing what happend to him wasn't the thing that blew my mind. It was the photos. It was like I was meeting a friend that I haven't seen for many many years. To Brian L. Bushnell you represent those who lost their lives in honor. I will continue to remember. Now I see you Brian and won't forget your service. You are not forgotten. I believe it was meant for me to run into this site. I don't know Brian but for the last 15 years or so I have remembered in my quiet way. I just hope that someday when I am gone that we will meet and shake hands. For now R.I.P. Brian.
