Final Mission of LT Daniel D. Cooper
LT Daniel D. Cooper was a Navy aviator assigned to Attack Squadron 22 (VA-22), Carrier Air Wing Fifteen (CVW-15), aboard the USS Coral Sea. LT Cooper was killed on February 4, 1972, when his USN A-7E Corsair II (#156870) impacted the water during a night recovery mission. Witnesses saw the aircraft fly into the sea just off the coast, possibly a case of pilot disorientation.

Remembering An American Hero
Dear LT Daniel Dean Cooper, sir
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for your sacrifice made on behalf of our wonderful country. The youth of today could gain much by learning of heroes such as yourself, men and women whose courage and heart can never be questioned.
May God allow you to read this, and may He allow me to someday shake your hand when I get to Heaven to personally thank you. May he also allow my father to find you and shake your hand now to say thank you; for America, and for those who love you.
With respect, and the best salute a civilian can muster for you, Sir
Curt Carter
