can’t wait for the 2014 reunion in Branson
Just wish everyone a happy thanksgiving. I was with delta 1st Val 4th marine in name was on the loon got in country may 26 1968
my father was George R Hoffman, he was in weapons. he passed away in 1988. I would like to talk to any one that knew him
Michael Hoffman
I knew you Dad,
He was a machine gunner in 2nd Platoon, Delta Co. He was a short guy, but tough and very reliable. He had a permanent 5 o’clock shadow. He could shave in the morning and within the hour, it would start growing back.
Most of our gunners were your Dad’s size. Humping the big M-60 around the jungle made them mean. He was one of a two gunners in my squad and both were good.
Sorry to hear about his passing. I would liked to have seen him again.
Yoyo was a gunner in name short and bad anyone remember him
I have a lot of Delta contacts from 65 to 69. I will be glad to help if I can.
Does anyone remember Ben Kenison, 2nd Plt, Delta. His brother, Jim, and I (cousin) would like to stop by the reunion and talk to marines who knew him. KIA 9/16/66.
Navy Cross recipient. I’m a Delta 1/1 Marine.

My thanks to Thomas Puskarich Delta Company 1st battalion 4th Marines 3rd Marine Division for posting all those photos. Great job on all you did. Can’t say how many memories they have brought to light. Not sure if you remember Charlie Miller or me,Dave Myers,radio operator and Miller was my shadow and best friend. Always seem to be in the thick of things together and we had each others back. We made it Okinawa and were with 1/9 until we went back to the world in March 1970. I lost track of everybody until seeing your photos online,what a shock that was. Any information on him or others please drop me a line…..Thanks
Hello Myers
I hope you recall me. Last Ramirez. I remember old Reed. How is he doing, I hope he’s find. I have a photo of both of you, as we were humping along a mountain ridge line, I believe you got a toy rabbit strapped to your helmet.
If you would like, I will send you a photo copy of it. Just provide with your address.
Well, it’s know you’re doing, and Thomas did good the photo documentary.
So good to hear from you….yes, I do remember you. You nickednamed me ,el condo blanco, when I was on point and Sgt Pickett chewed me out for making the trail to small in the elephant grass and he could not go through. Still trying to find Charlie Miller…stay safe and well my brother
It was great hearing your response. All is well with me and I hope the same for you and family …. I would enjoy hearing back from you and would like to see those pics. Thanks again A Ramirez….el conejo blanco

First of all – thanks for the great web site, It has provided a lot of good information in my research.
My uncle was LCPL Vincent “Moe” Agius a machine gunner in Delta Company from Janesville WI. He was WIA on Apr 9, 1967 5km East of Hill 158 and later passed away Apr 17, 1967 at Clark Air Base. I am looking for anyone who remembers him that wouldn’t mind sharing stories, pictures, etc.
I believe I found the section of the action report for the action my uncle was wounded in:
091005H – D/1/4 FORWARD ELEMENTS ESCORTING CONVOY AT YD163700 RECEIVED A/W FIRE AND 5 ROUNDS SUSPECTED 82mm MORTAR FIRE. 5 POSSIBLE NVA IN UNIFORM AT YD160691. RETURNED FIRE WITH ORGANIC WEAPONS. CALLED ARTY AND SWEPT AREA. 2 NVA KIA (CONF), 1 NVA KIA (PROB). D/1/4 SUSTAINED 5 WIA
Maybe this will jog someone’s memory.
Some additional information: On the day my uncle was wounded, the corpsman was James Greenough, and one of the other WIA was Verne Beelard. I recently contacted James and several years ago my mother connected with Verne.
