I was attached from H&MS-12 to VMAQ-2, an EA-6A squadron, to go on the Midway in May of '75. When we got to Yokouska we were told that "A ship load of Marines are coming in port soon. They lost a bunch of their buddies rescuing a merchant ship called the Mayaguez. Stay our of their way." We did.
I think it was the next day some buddies and I were coming back in from town. The ship was in. We saw a large group of you walking up the hill toward the gate. We stood to the side and watched you. Some of you looked our way. We nodded to you-out of respect for your dead brothers and for what you had gone through. I will never forget that day. Recently The Moving Wall came to town. I got rubbings of those who died on Koh Tang. They are in my "Open when i die" box with instructions to my son, a Marine officer, to keep and pass to his offspring. "Never Forgotten" are not just words. They are a promise. Semper Fidelis. God Bless you all. |

In Flanders Fields
By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918) Canadian Army "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." Saepe Expertus, Semper Fidelis, Fratres Aeterni |
