THE WALL OF FACES

Frank John August was a 1963 graduate of Cohen High School, New Orleans, LA.
And a 'hat tip' to Kenneth B. Moore, 1963 Wa-Lo-Co graduate for his remembering
his fellow classmate.

Semper Fidelis, Marine!

Never forgotten.

Semper Fi, Marine

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 die....

Private First Class Frank John August, Served with the 1st Platoon, Company D, 1st Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.
