He was an auto mechanic before enlisting in the Marine Corps in November 1967. The 20-year-old private first class, a rifleman, was assigned to Company M of Battalion Landing Team 3/1, 9th Marine Amphibious Brigade. Brockman died on May 31, 1968, a month after arriving in Viet Nam. In addition to his wife, he is survived by his daughter, mother, brother and four sisters." SEMPER FIDELIS, MARINE!
