I continue to work on the personal website I am constructing to be dedicated to Ssgt. Foster and have already written to the President and my NY State representatives on his behalf. Anyone who can provide me with family information or a photo would be most appreciated. Thank you.

P.S. Tim...
If you get back to the Wall and are able to, I would love to have a tracing of his name to put on my website. I can scan it in if I need to. Thanks.

The above posting was made by me years ago before I resigned my membership at Care2. I now have a full website honoring Ssgt. Robert E. Foster. I have also been given the only known photos of him by a former service friend of his who provided me with much new information about when they served together in Alaska before Ssgt. Foster served in Viet Nam.
Anyone interested or wearing his bracelet may find that website at the following URL:
