I became a Navy Hospital Corpsman and I was eventually assigned to the Fleet Marine Force. I completed my training at Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base in 1967 and was given orders to the 5th Marines in Vietnam where I experienced some bitter combat including the Battle of Hue City during Tet Offensive of 1968.
I share my stories, my prayers and some scripture along the way. I believe you will be enlightened by my personal experiences and those of my fellow Marines as we battle for survival each day and night through the jungle, the mountains, the rivers and the cities of Vietnam.
I have included my personal letters to my family which include requests for prayer and stories from the battlefield. I have also inserted many pictures from the war and my bronze star award ceremony in 2016 where Miss America, Heather French Henry, was present and many other dignitaries.
A person who has witnessed the things I have prays for peace daily and I have found that the presence of The Lord is always near whenever I go to Him in prayer.
And remember:
Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. (KJV)view less
