Arrangements are still being made.

General Barrow was Commandant when I joined the Marines in 1979.
(”Chain of Command, aye aye, SIR!”)

May General Barrow rest in peace, and may God bless his family.
He was a great Marine.

“He led Able Company ashore at Inchon in September 1950.”

Wow. A serious warrior. God save his soul and comfort his loved ones.

Thanks for the posting. Now he is with the Lord of Hosts. His service to our country is written in history. His surviving family must be very proud of his long time accomplishments.
God rest his soul for that future day of participation in the Glory only the True God Creator of the OT and NT can bring.
