In memoriam:
Major William Robert Halterman, USMC, friend and mentor, who was there through it all.
God rest you, sir, and thank you for all.
Same goes for my uncle, Alan, Purple Heart Recipient, with the Third Infantry Div.
Semper Fidelis.
I served with several who climbed the seawall at Inchon and made it through the horror of Chosin. Several more who were at Chosin who also experienced Guadalcanal, Peleliu, and Okinawa with the 1st MarDiv.
Hardcore Marines one and all.
