THE WALL OF FACES

Jim was my squad leader. He was well liked by all members of the platoon. When it came to comfort or safety of his men, Jim always made sure we were treated well. It was a sad day that he died.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

As long as you are remembered you will never truly die.

Sergeant James Joseph Abraham, Served with Company A, 1st Battalion, 6th Infantry Regiment, 198th Infantry Brigade, Americal Division, United States Army Vietnam.

On the remembrance of your 79th birthday, your sacrifice is not forgotten.

HOOAH
