My name is Doc Hartley I produly served with 1st bat 4th Marines Charlie, Bravo, & Delta companies Jan 1 thru Aug 7th 1966.
I too am looking for the surviors of "Cherry Charlie" company. You see, when C company lost it's cherry, it lost most of it's capability as a cohesive fighting unit, and was merged into Bravo & delta company's. I am trying to find a Red head Lcpl from Oregon, I think Bend, Oregon who saved my life and a few others. I told some spit and polished Colonal in strached fatigues, that he and another brother both need to be nominated for valor. They wanted to nominate me for the silver star. Anyway, I got saved right after again, by the death of my 8 year brother and got a free pass to go home on emergency leave. My new unit Bravo company & Delta from 1- 4 went back into the shit, up around Khsan. Saw it on TV while on leave. Holy crap that was a nightmare. Never got back to the Nam.
Need to reconcile some old wounds, and say many many thanks.
