Had an unbelievable tour in '71.
Went as 11B, but was made an MP upon arrival in country. What a break!
Did 2 weeks of OJT in Long Binh, then on to Cam Rahn with the 95th MP Co.
Placed on TDY w/101st out of Camp Eagle during last push into Khe Sanh that spring. Ran convoys, worked w/VN MPs and Regular Police.
When over, returned to CRB for a pretty nice life inside the wire. Got a secret clearance (another story) became a courrier, moved to the beach and lived with the Specail Services crew. Life was good....until there was a RIF & all OJT MP's went back to original MOS.
That got me a permanent assignment w/ 1st of the 506th, 101stABN doing LRRPs & night ambush patrols based out of Camp Evans.
Would love to hook with any of the guys from my old units.

WAS IN COUNTRY W/2-5 81's 66-67
Was at Cam Ranh Bay in USAF 12th CES 7/67 to 7/68. My buddy 'Bud' Parker and I were injured somewhat (no purple hearts) during the attack on the Air Base in April 1968. Have many pictures of the fires and chaos. Parker nearly slit a philippino's throat when he dived into our sandbag bunker seeking shelter. Any who remember us includung Maj. Emsdorff our CO please contact me at the email above. Love to hear from you, Within 10' radius we recieved three rockets into barrels of gasoline or 500 gal bladders of JP fuel,

Dear fellow Marines,
I served in the Corps in the early '50's with my childhood and best friend, Gunnery Sergeant Juan Almanza from San Antonio, Texas. We did Pendleton, South Camp Fugi, Japan, and Okinawa. We were in separate units but always close by. I was in Camp Kinser with the 3rd Bn 9th Marines (0311 Grunt) and he with the 12th Marines (Okinawa). Gunny Almanza also served in Santa Domingo (Bronze Star there), and in the American Embassy, Iran. He could be very firm and was always fair. He was as "Gung Ho" as you'd ever want to see. I left the Corps in '58 and he remained. In August of '58 I joined the Army's 9th Infantry Division and we lost touch for a while. In late September when I returned to the States, I received a letter informing me that Juan was KIA'd in the Quang Tri Province on September 9, 1967 by incoming enemy artillery. His name is on Panel 26E, Row 41 of the Wall. I have posted a Remembrance to him along with his picture (taken while he was in Iran) on the Virtual Wall. I do not know what outfit he was with in the Nam. If any Marine/s remember or knew him please contact me at the published email address. Most of his family has since passed away. I served in Nam with the Army's 506th. I have to tell you that I love ALL branches of the U.S. Military. Were are one hell of a Force! To all Marines, Semper Fi. To other branches, THANK YOU for serving, and believe, that we didn't go to the Nam for nothing!
