Hi,
I was on the Harold E. Holt FF-1074, when we were called away from Subic Bay to rescue the Mayaguez. Seal, UDT and Marines were brought aboard by helicopter. I remember the jet going over dropping a tear gas/vomiting agent on the Mayaguez while we pulled along side and the Marines jumped onboard. When all was clear, we towed her away. They were dropping 500lb bombs on Koh Tang. Wounded were brought back on board. Scary times! |

My uncle, Sgt Jimmy Black was on knife 13 that went down in Thailand May 13, 1975. In addition to AF I’m very close to many Marines who went to Koh Tang. Heroes 🇺🇸

CAMP LEJEUNE WATER CONTAMINATION LITIGATION
Seems the CLNC Litigation is being combined as part of the Burn Pit Law which Congress is completing now. If you think you might be eligible, I would advise that you contact an attorney/service representative to file. I might suggest: weitzlux.com which I noticed in a Marine Corps Assoc email. Navigate to Environmental and then to Camp Lejeune N.C. There will be a box for Free Case Evaluation. Good luck & Semper Fi!!! Top Pro |

In Flanders Fields
John McCrae - 1872-1918 In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. Never Forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice, of whom we know many. R.I.P. Semper Fi!!! |
