THE WALL OF FACES

Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

HOOAH

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 sunlight 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.

Dear Lt Joseph Logan, Thank you for your service as a Tactical Aircraft Pilot. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. It is another spring, but like none other. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it stills needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness. Rest in peace with the angels.

First Lieutenant Joseph Patrick Logan Jr., Served with the 389th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 366th Tactical Fighter Wing, 7th Air Force.

Dear Lt. Joe: I think of you often; the memories of our time together with the 389th TFS flood over me at times. My thoughts turn to your professionalism, your great attitude and passion as a "Phantom Phlyer," and your appreciation and respect for us "Phantom Phixer's!" Chief Echols told us Crew Chiefs to "not get too close" to our aircrew members, but you made that very hard to do! You were friendly, congenial, and so supportive of your Crew Chiefs! I will never forget your kindness, or your "great smile!" I will also never forget that awful morning . . . I watched the entire, horrific accident unfold. It happened so fast, and so nearby. At the moment, I did not know it was you who was in peril. But, within seconds, after I looked more closely at the aircraft tail number, it was evident that my friend and favorite aircrew member was likely involved, and badly injured. I cannot describe how your ULTIMATE SACRIFICE has impacted my days, months and years since Danang! The images and realities of that day haunt me today, just as they have for the past 50 years! So, Lt. Joe, just know you are not forgotten, that your memory lives on, and that a fellow Gunfighter thinks of you often! Rest in Peace, Sir! It was an honor and privilege to serve with you!
