| Comments: | semper fidelis marines!!!! , I was with third platoon , Charlie company 1/4 , as an 0311 , from 1986 to 1989. I was there when that young lance corporal from camp lejune ,got lost out in the desert. that was a really sad expierence , and it effected the entire battalion. the gulf war , was going on and bravo company was deployed , and we were next to rotate out. the training we received , was unbelievable , and made us some unstoppable warriors. I then reinlisted , and went to quantico , the basic school , enlisted instructor school , for four years , as an 0311. dessert storm broke out , as we were training lieutenants out in the bush. the training cycles were intense , and the knowledge learned and earned , will last me a life time. I got out in 1993 , and have been an armed security officer for twenty years , and raised two boys as a single parent. the marine corps did so much for me that it really is undescribable . semper fidelis to all marines , world wide. |

| Comments: | I am looking for information relating to my cousin who served in Viet Nam from 6 Dec 1967 to 5 Jun 1968 when he died in battle at Quang Tri at the age of 18. He was in D Company of the 1st BN 4th Marines. His immediate family is gone and those of us that are still around are searching for any information that someone may have. If anyone remembers him we would appreciate any stories and if we are very lucky any photo you may have. His name may jog your memory for you see, we are a Finnish family and he had an unusual name. It was DERRIS UUTELA and he was born and raised in Minnesota. His name is on the Viet Nam wall as well as our local Viet Nam wall and we are very proud of him. His father was a Navy Seal during WWII and he served his country proudly returning to have 2 sons. Unfortunately he died of natural causes in 1967 just when Derris got to Viet Nam. Hope there is someone that remembers Derris and hopefully has an old photo of him.
Thank You |

Exotic Locations seen: Phu Bai, Dong Ha, C-2, Con Thien, Camp Carroll, Camp Vandergrift & many FSB's and LZ's. Most of the time I just went where I was told without knowing where I was. Anyone remember the sweep along the DMZ from Con Thien towards Dong Ha on 5.22.68 when we ran into bunkers and were ambushed? Tanks came from Con Thien or C-2 the next morning when we finally gathered our dead. Anyone remember Point Man Robert Hunter, shot in lower jaw, Machine Gunner William Hamacher, KIA or Blooper Man ? Jacobs, KIA and others who have faded from my memory? There were many terrifying, miserable moments there but we the lucky ones made it back to 'The World'. Semper Fi |

| Comments: | I was a very good friend of Lyman Trachsler, "Doc Lolli" who was in Viet Nam in 1966, not sure about his total service dates. I know he was at at Cam Lo. I have an email he asked me to forward to a mutual friend in 2002 that states, "Jack, I ran across this on the net. I was there. This is an account of what we did in Nam. I was with the 4th Marines and it describes the battle at Cam Lo and also the time we were ambushed and I got my "Star". Just thought you might want to read about it. Lt. Galvin was our commanding officer as was Jack (Black Jack) Westerman (The Grey Ghost). Cam Lo was where I first got hit and the ambush in the valley is where I tried to save a some Marines...long time ago. Hard to read about it as my memory is not as good as the report." The report is "The DMZ War Continues, Operation Prairie, Reconnasissance in Force, 3 August -13 Sept 1966, Assault from the Sea." Unfortunately Lyman passed away in March 2008. He had a silver star from this time & if anyone knows any details about how he received it I would love to hear from them as I would pass the information on to his wife, Betty. Lyman was a great human being and is deeply missed by all of his family and friends. He had diabetes, heart disease & kidney disease that were determined to be from being exposed to Agent Orange in Viet Nam. |

| Comments: | I enlisted in the Marines in March of '1967. On October 21.1967 I entered the Republic of Vietnam at DaNang air base. From there I was transported to Camp Evens near Phu Bai to be attached with my unit 1st Bn 4th Marines, Delta Co, 3rd platoon weapons. My MOS was M-60 machine guns. The Bn at the time was in the Ashau Valley, so I was kept in the rear for indocrination before flown by helo into field one week later. In November our Regimental Headquarters went North to Dong Ha while the 4th Marine fighting units pulled operations along the DMZ. My tour of duty ended June 6.1968 while on a small ridge high up on the mountains near the laotian border southwest of Khe Sahn called LZ Loon. I received a serious wound to my head and eventually medivaced to the hospital ship USS Sanctuary off the Soth China Sea. I never heared from anyone again due to the fact I could not write because of my head wounds and my men didn't know where I went. It was 20 years before I finally heard from someone because of my name on the Vietnam wall internet information line.
Not a day goes by I don't think of these men I spent such hardships and horror with and the last hours of terrible trauma. I can't thank them enough. I thank the Marine that carried me to the helo, and the door gunner that held me from falling out the side of the helo while firing at the same time as we lifted away. These thoughts are branded in my mind forever with the idea of never willing to forget. I miss and respect them all. Semper Fi my Marines. Mike |

| Comments: | I wanted to return to the Dreambook to say thanks.
From the time I joined the Marine Corps in 1965 and got out in 1969 I have not seen or heard from anybody that I served with...that is until I signed this book. A fellow Marine named Paul Wosney that was actually in my mortar section in Nam from 67 to 68 replied to my post and we have been in contact weekly every since. I was totally blown away and elated when I got his E-Mail but the saddest part of this is that until he saw my name in the Dreambook he had'nt talked or located anyone either. Once again I say thanks for putting this page together and providing a way for guys like us to reunite. |

| Comments: | Hello: I left Camp Margarita in 1965 via the USS Mitchell. I was in the H&S Company, 81mm Mortars Platoon. We landed in Chu Lai and were by MAG 12, and provided illumination and support for B Med. I was just a kid then, some of the guys I remember, St. Tuilafano(Samoan)Sgt.Ortiz(Pueto Rican)Corporal Ray Hernandez, From Corpus Cristy,Tex. Lawrence Cannon, Humphrey,and many others that I cannot remember their names. Corporal Huddleston, Private Hall, TC Carter. We used to rotate to the tip where we had a base, and there was an island called "Snagletooth". We walked the I CORP from Danang al the way to Cam lo, the rock pile and other places. We were on the Rockpile on Sept.1966. During Operation Praire, I received a Navy Commendation Medal, foolish kid playing heroe.I remember that when we got back to the States, we went back to Camp Margarita. I remember that when we got back, all of the platoon were NCO's. I was transfer to 3/26 and went back to Nam. When i came back, we landed in the back of MCRD and the next day we had to parade in San Diego, the hippies threw rotten eggs at us. Funny, the next day I was taken to Camp Margarita and I walked in one door of the squad bay, by the NCO club, I went out the other a civilian. I walked out and have never looked back. Almost forty years later, Ifinally realized that I am suffering from PTSD and Diabetes II from Agent Orange.I'm trying to find some of the guys, and I'm having a heck of a time. The VA, wants me to get statements from my unit friends to verify their shit. If there are any of you outthere, how about making contact. I could use your help,.That kid got old, and now I'm having as always my dreams and nightmares.
Ive never talk to anyone about my time and experiences in the Nam, for me, they would not understand. Monday I go to see a psychiatrist, I;m afraid I'll grab him by the throat if he pushes my buttons. How about a hand, guys. I see your faces every night, but I cannot remember the names. God Bless you all..Semper Fi.. |

I wemt thru PI in Jan 65, IRT and then to M 3/5 at Pendelton. We went by ship to OKI -Camp Hansen- as 2/3 and went thru some "special raider training". Headed to Nam as 2/3 and shortly after arriving at Da Nang we were sent ot Chu Lai to become Charlie Co 1/4. While in Da Nang we lost several guys in a freak LVT sinking including our PLt Sgt Moses Tabor. From Chu Lai we kept moving North and wound up outside of Hue/Phu Bai in deep do do. I was wounded on May 20 '66 and spent just about a year in St Albans Naval Hosp on Long Island. It's been a long ride with a lot of ups and downs but serving with the guys of 1/4 was definitely one of the ups. I'm now living outside of Chicago (Algonquin) am retired and believe it or not a MR. MOM -- I'm 61 and have two kids - a girl 10 and a boy 7, and needless to say a lovely younger wife - another bunch of ups.

| Comments: | Following boot camp at Parris Island, S.C. on May 1947, I was assigned to A Co., 4th Marine Regiment at Camp Jejune, as a Browning Automatic (BAR) in the 3rd platoon.
Our Company Commander had been a WWII Marine Raider, who believed in tough training, with 20 mile marches, field and several night problems monthly. The Sgt 1st/sgt. was a WWII combat veteran & our Gy/Sgt and Platoon S/Sgt had been in the 4th Marines, POWs at the fall of Corrugators. In January 1948 we sailed to the island of Vieques Puerto Rico for training, I spent my 18th birthday there. In March 1948 and I was promoted to Corporal. August 1948, A Company flew from Cherry Point, N.C. to Quonset Point, Rhode Island and boarded the USS LITTLE ROCK (CLG-4) for a Mediterranean Cruise. We put into the ports of Gibraltar, Sicily, and Rhodes, Greece for liberty. On our departure from Rhodes, our 3rd platoon received orders to pack our 782 gear, weapons, and sea bags because we were going on "special, detached, dangerous duty". Due to the danger of this assignment, they gave platoon members the option of not going, but it was up to the Marine not wanting to go to get a replacement. Several short-timers did this, by exchanging places with our platoon Marines on mess duty. The destroyer USS McKenzie came along side and we boarded her for an overnight trip to Haifa, Israel. We dis-embarked and loaded our gear onto UN trucks, hiding our weapons, by putting them on top of the cases of ammunition, C rations and grenades. We covered them with our packs and sea bags and we sat on top. Due to, the assassination of UN mediator Count Folke Bernadotte, the killing of Consul General Thomas Wasson, the shooting at the consul and vice-consul, the wounding of a consular guard and Naval radioman, and the kidnapping of the Consulate Chief Code clerk and the report from A US Army Maj. Who overheard, that Consul General John MacDonald would be killed next, set the gears in motion for Consul General John Mac Donald, to request the U.S. State Department for more Marines We relieved a small contingent of 13 Marines, taking up our duties as Consulate Security and body guarding any Consulate staff members who left the compound on Official business. In addition, we guarded the U.S. Navy Radio Station, located in the Convent next to the Consulate and the YMCA where we and UN personnel were billeted. The first night in the YMCA we were awakened by machine gun fire from outside our window. Having been told that this was a neutral zone, we were puzzled. Then we heard a truck grind gears and drive away, followed by incoming mortar shells landing nearby. A few days later I asked a Haganah soldier about the machine gun and he said " Oh! We only have one machine gun that we drive around at night shooting it from various places, to make the Arabs think we have many." I asked him about shooting from our neutral area and he said I must be mistaken because it was in the dark. The rooms in the YMCA were nice, at 3 pounds a day with meals. The food was sparse, so we filled up on a sort of pita bread, cocoa, and tea at all our meals. Because the city water pipes had been blown up, the water was trucked into Jerusalem each night, so we had no showers. We would put a flat iron into the sink and run the water so it came up to just below where the top of the iron joined the bottom and then plugged it into a wall socket. This warmed the water allowing us to take a "sailors bath" and shave. Later we bought a coffeepot to heat the water. The nuns at the Convent did our laundry for a minimal cost, as well as any embroidery we wanted on our clothing. We were under daily sniper, machine gun, mortar and rocket fire, but were fortunate to have only one casualty during our tour. One evening, while standing duty on the main gate, I saw a rocket round swish through the air and hit the open lighted window of the Navy radio shack located in the Convent next door. The Navy radioman on duty had stepped out of the room a minute before or he would have been badly injured or killed. During his busy schedule he had failed to close the window shutters after it got dark, making the lighted room a perfect target for whoever fired the rocket. One day while playing football in a soccer field which was surrounded by corrugated metal fence about eight feet high, a sniper from the old city was shooting over our heads and we thought he was shooting at the football going through the air. Later the sniper shot an elderly man who was walking near the field. In January 1949, Marine Embassy Guards relieved us. They had numerous uniforms and Dress Blues. They were surprised when we told them that there wasn't any clothing cleaning in Jerusalem. On my last day of duty, I was relieved by a SSGT on the Main Gate, who was wearing Dress Blues and white gloves. We left all of our 782 gear and weapons at the Consulate and returned to the United States via the Destroyer USS GAINARD, from Haifa to Cypress, a Navy plane to Malta and then to a Naval Air Base in Casablanca. We waited there for a week for passage back home by ship and plane. We arrived at Norfolk Naval Shipyard and stayed at the Marine Barracks for the night. We then left by bus to Camp LeJeune, N.C. I was transferred to B Co., 4th Marines, drew new 782 gear and a rifle and we sailed off with the 2nd Marine Division for maneuvers on Vieques,P.R. a few days later. We changed our colors and became the 6th Marines under Col Homer Litzenberg. I was discharged in February 1950. and recalled to duty in July 1950 for the Korean War, In September 1950, many of the members of the platoon that served at the Consulate in Jerusalem, made the landing at Inchon and fought their way out of the trap at the Chosin Reservoir in North Korea. For the second time they became the "Chosin Few". William D. Furey -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Can't remember it all- ongoing loss of memory segments. Rotated back, got out and attached to USMC reserve in Milwaukee for service obligation remainder. Got married in 67, wanted to go back in but she raised hell, so put other 16 years in Air Force. Retired MSgt.
I regret not going back in Navy and asking for FMF (and specifically RVN). I guess life is full of regrets, but I really feel like I let the finest group of men I ever served with down. I can't remember names and stuff, did we have a commander killed when he walked off some cliffs in the middle of the night? If you remember me, or anyone from C/1/4, 65-66, how about dropping me a line? Semper Fi. |

TIME 1/4 WAS IN KANEOHE BAY HAWAII. I WAS A SQUAD LEADER IN ALPHA CO. WHEN I FIRST GOT THERE 1/4 WAS A FULL COMPANY. THERE WAS JUST 1/4 THE ONTOS COMPANY AND OF COURSE MAG 13. AROUND 1961 THEY STARTED TO FORM THE 2ND AND 3RD BLTS. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE TOUGH TRAINING WE HAD. IT WAS HELL GOING TO THE OTHER ISLANDS. THE BIG ISLAND WAS THE WORSE. WE USED TO CALL IT THE MOON. THE VALCANO ASH USED TO TEAR US UP. FROM 1/4 I WENT TO 3RD RECON BLT 3RD MARINE DIV.IN OKINAWA. 3RD RECON BLT WAS A TOUGH MEAN OUTFIT. BUT IT WAS ALOT EASIER FOR ME BECAUSE OF MY TRAINING IN 1/4. I ALWAYS BRAGGED TO MY MEN IN RECON ABOUT 1/4. I DO BELIEVE MY TOUR IN THE 1ST MARINE BRIGADE HELPED ME MAKE IT THROUGH NAM. I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHERE 1/4 IS NOW BUT WHERE EVER THEY ARE YOU CAN BEST ASSURE THEY'LL BE READY. THANKS GOOD LUCK AND GOODBYE. |

very happy to hear from Doc Bayer about this site. I was even happier to hear that Doc Nimmo is going to scan the cruise book for others to see. Doc Bayer and myself spent a lot of time between patrols and operations, in putting it together. I will be looking forward to those scanned copies of the book, as I have long ago lost my copy. I also look forward to communicating with all of you and will start making plans to meet you at the next reunion. |

little buggy). Nice to see that you have taken the opportunity to get folks together. I was a hospital corpsman with 1/4 and was also the editor of the cruise book. Wish I had heard about you sooner. Dr. Wertz, the Bn surgeon, was at my house this past weekend and told me about your group (he heard from Doc Lantz). It's nice to see that Doc Nimmo is scanning the cruise book, what a great labor of love. I have corresponded with Paul Chapman, who was the photographer for the cruise book. He is in Oxnard, CA. Here is a copy of a recent email: Re: Looking for Vietnam vet Date: 6/9/99 8:02:48 PM Central Daylight Time From: pchat@gte.net (Paul Chatman) To: Navybayers@aol.com Jon...What makes you think I am in my early 50's? How are you? I can't tell you how often I have thought of you. Have you been able to find any of the other guy's? How do you feel about betting a reunion together? You and I were always in to stuff like that. Their is so much to talk about, I live in Oxnard, CA, married for 26 years, two adult children and one grandchild. I work as an Administrative Assistant for a Ventura County Supervisor. I was elected to a school board 9 yrs. ago and now serve as President of that School Board. Their is so much more to talk about, what about you? I noticed the MD after your name, why am I not surprised. I look forward to us continuing our friendship. Paul It looks like we can get together more often now. I recently retired as a Navy Captain, after 31 years in the Navy as a corpman and physician. I look forward to being a part of 1/4 again.

| Comments: | Dear Marines-
I am a young historian from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and have volunteered my services to write short biographical sketches on each man from this county who died in the Vietnam War. This will be published in our local paper and accompany the "Travelling Wall" on a visit to our city this Memorial Day. One of the 18 young men on my list is one of yours, Robert Lester Kessel. Bobby was a LCpl in Delta 1/4 and was killed in action during operation "Beacon Hill I" on March 20, 1967. I would greatly appreciate hearing from Marines that knew and served with him in Vietnam. My work is more than just facts on these induviduals, I would like to include personal quotes from those who knew them best, the members of his company. Thank you for this chance to sign the guestbook Best Wishes, Wayne E. Motts Gettysburg, PA |
