Remembering an American Hero
Dear 2LT Anthony Edward Kupka, sir,
As an American, I would like to thank you for your service and for the ultimate sacrifice that you 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. And please know that men and women like you have stepped forward to defend our country yet again, showing the same love for country and their fellow Americans that you did- you would be proud.
With respect, and the best salute that a civilian can muster for you.
Curt Carter

Do not stand at my grave and weep
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.
Mary Frye – 1932

A Marine....
This snapshop of Tony was taken just weeks before his death on Hill 146 outside of An Hoa, South Viet Nam. Just hours before his death, the Red Cross notified our company that he had become a father. I was able to radio this information to him on the day of his death. He was filled with joy at the news. He was very admired by his fellow Marines and became my best friend in the very short time we were together. Semper Fi!
