Memorial Day: Honoring the sacrifice of Staff Sgt. James Norman Byers

Memorial Day: Honoring the sacrifice of Staff Sgt. James Norman Byers

By Kevin Dayhoff Wednesday, May 25, 2011 http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4418
Hopefully, you and your family will pause this Memorial Day to remember those men and women in uniform who have gone before us and made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms and our way of life.

For many, Memorial Day is a special holiday in which we honor the legacy of all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.  We owe a great debt and responsibility to remember and honor these heroes in our hearts. 

Over 2.7 million Americans served in the Vietnam War.  Of the 58,200 names listed on the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington, 1,046 are Marylanders who made the ultimate sacrifice in the Vietnam War.

President Kennedy once said “A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers.” 

On Monday, after the Memorial Day ceremonies at the Westminster Cemetery, many of us will also gather at the nearby Carroll County Vietnam Memorial.  There we informally pay our respects to all the patriots that have gone before us; but we are particularly drawn together to share the memories of the eighteen names that are etched in the black granite memorial that is the centerpiece of the memorial park.

One such hero, whose face is indelibly etched into the cold stone memorial, is that of Staff Sgt. James Norman Byers of Westminster.

Byers had been deployed to Vietnam for five months when he was killed by a Viet Cong sniper on Friday, January 20, 1967.  He was born on Monday, March 2, 1942 in Union Mills and was he son of Norman and Sarah Shorb Byers. 

He was just 24 years old when he died serving our country.  Staff Sergeant Byers, who had decided to make a career of serving in the Army, was a squad leader attached to the 196th Light Infantry Brigade, Company B, 4th Battalion, 31st Infantry and stationed in Tay Ninh Province, Vietnam… http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4418

Remembering the Sacrifice of Vietnam
Kevin E. Dayhoff
On Saturday, at 1 P.M., members of the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment Air Cavalry Troop – the Black Horse Regiment, from all over the country – will pause to remember the fallen from the Vietnam War at the Carroll County Vietnam Memorial Park at Willis and Court Streets in Westminster. The public is invited.

Travel Tales
Tom McLaughlin
Phuket Island Thailand – Every week I play a game I call “Air Asia” roulette. The local price buster airline offers weekly sales well below any advertised price. When I say “well below,” I mean deep ocean discounts where sometimes one can fly paying only the airport tax.

See How They Run – Part 2
Roy Meachum
The numbers are intimidating: 20 candidates are contesting for five seats on the city's Board of Aldermen. That turns out eleven Republicans and nine Democrats. Most names ring no bells. With exactly nine weeks before voters march into the booths, many who filed can count on only their families and friends stepping up for them.

Looking at The Future
Farrell Keough
Been watching a local election with great interest recently. Noticed one very poignant aspect – there are two basic types of candidates: Fixers and Visionaries. It will be interesting to see who the voters decide on.

Becoming a Billionaire – Part 2
Richard B. Weldon Jr.
Oliver "Daddy" Warbucks is a billionaire industrialist who lives in a grand mansion at 987 Fifth Avenue in New York City. He's gruff, focused, and intent on building his empire, in spite of the onset of the Great Depression. He has a great deal of affection for his large staff, especially his personal assistant, Grace Farrell, although he goes to great lengths to not let that be known.

Vigilance Is Our Saving Grace
Steven R. Berryman
I deny that I wrote this column. The problem is that the technology exists today to record electronically the very keystrokes emanating from my wireless keyboard, and – that as it happens – in “real time!”

See How They Run
Roy Meachum
Heave a great sigh of relief: Tuesday's primary election deadline has passed. Now we'll have no more speculation about Republican Alan Imhoff running again for the mayor's office. He lost an earlier race but he was a Democrat then. (In the next column, we'll discuss the aldermanic elections.)

“We The People” Rising Up
Joe Charlebois
We The People grant certain powers to the federal government. We as citizens of several independent states and commonwealths needed to establish ways to provide uniform justice, fair trade (between the states) and provide for national defense to protect the fledgling republic that had just been established. The founders established a document that protects the individual from the state.

The Wave of the Future
Tony Soltero
During the ongoing Iranian election crisis, an expression that quickly evolved from inspired observation to hoary cliché was "The Revolution Will Be Twittered." But even though the phrase has become tiresome, it doesn't mean that it's not reflective of a profound and game-changing development in the communications capabilities of ordinary citizens.

Dear Michael Steele
Patricia A. Kelly
I just received the Republican National Committee 2009 Obama Agenda Survey. I answered, partially because I like you personally, and wish you success in your position. It does my heart good to see a moderate in a high level Republican role, for a change, as I really like feeling included.

Palin Derangement Syndrome
Kevin E. Dayhoff
Last Friday the liberal hate machine gasped in collective horror at the very idea that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin may not be around in the foreseeable future and be the object of anger looking for a safe victim.

What’s Up with Republican Governors?
Michael Kurtianyk
So what is it with these Republican governors these days? Is there some sort of Kool-Aid trough they’re drinking from that’s making them go wacko? In no particular order, let’s look at the Hall of Shame.

English Lessons
Tom McLaughlin
Kuching, Malaysia – “Sir! Sir!” the voice pealed behind me. I turned around and there was a very pretty young Malay girl trying to hail me. I was on a busy shopping street that had been closed to traffic and reverted into a pedestrian walk way in downtown Kuching.

Sarah Palin's Bye-Bye
Roy Meachum
Resigning as Alaska's governor may have been the smartest move by Sarah Palin, a politician noted more for smarts than intelligence; it cheers her fans and confounds her enemies, including those in the media. Journalists have criticized their colleagues – never themselves – for being too hard on the ex-vice presidential nominee.

Hail and Farewell, Sarah Palin
Patricia A. Kelly
Sarah Palin just announced her resignation as governor of Alaska, effective July 26, 2009.

Motorcycle Touring – Part 2
Nick Diaz
Summertime is motorcycle touring time. This year I’m headed for West Virginia, (heaven, not “almost…”), in late July, to meet with a bunch of friends from far and wide. Two weeks later I’m headed for northwestern Ohio for a high school reunion.

Becoming a Billionaire – Part 1
Richard B. Weldon Jr.
In the last few weeks, the transformation of my life from a relatively normal one to one of a 1920s industrial tycoon began.

The Take Back America Rally
Steven R. Berryman
It was my honor and pleasure to bear witness to the first annual rally in front of the Frederick County Courthouse on the 4th of July. Not a “tea party,” it was about taking back America.
