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 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.
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.

Final Mission of SGT Edward L. Brock
SGT Edward L. Brock, SGT Marvin T. Hughes, SSGT William D. Mullins, SP4 Norman G. Toennies, and SP4 Vicente Zuniga were infantrymen assigned to B Company, 3rd Battalion, 22nd Infantry, 4th Infantry Division. On December 21, 1966, they were members of an ambush patrol enroute to an ambush site by boat. While traveling on the Nha Be River, the boat slowed to make a right turn when the bow dipped below the water and the craft became swamped and capsized near the mouth of Rach Ong Thuoc. All five soldiers drowned in the incident. Their remains were recovered that same day with the exception of SP4 Zuniga whose body was retrieved four days later. [Taken from coffeltdatabase.org]

Remembering An American Hero
Dear SGT Edward Leroy Brock, 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
