THE WALL OF FACES

I have had my original Newk Grubb POW MIA. Bracelet. I took it with me when I went to visit the replica wall in California. I have had my bracelet since the early 1970s. I can no longer wear it because it has a stress crack. I treat it and your memory like gold. Thank you for your service. ♡

Lieutenant Colonel Wilmer Newlin Grubb, Served with the 20th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron, 6250th Combat Support Group, 460th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing, 13th Air Force.

I still remember receiving my bracelet and sending a letter to the family, despite not knowing what to say and not expecting a response. Not long after, I received a beautiful response, making the experience personal. The bracelet is in my hand as I type this. God bless.

I wore Lt Col Newk Grubb's POW bracelet for years and years and kept it stored where I would see it daily and continued to pray for him. I have the bracelet if there is a family member who would cherish it.

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.
