My name Sgt. Glenn A. Gray while serving with HQ. CO. 3RD. MarDiv. Quang Tri, I had a conversation with L/Cpl. George Marshall. He gave me a picture of him featured in Life Magazine of him playing a guitar in a bunker. The picture was taken by David Duncan Douglas. I have just finished the Book about the 26th Marine Regiment's gallant survival during the Tet Offensive called I Protest. I have the origional picture given to me in Vietnam of LCpl. George Marshall. I wonder if any Vietnam Vets know what happened to L/Cpl Marshall?

Semper FI.
I too was there during Tet. Our battalion was spread across the mountain range outside of the compound to the north of Khe Sanh. We controlled the northern route the NVA would have to take to get to the compound. I was a young L/Cpl, and served as squad leader of an 81mm Mortar Squad. I had a great group of men even though I often called them “Rejects from the other squads.” As far as I am concerned they were the best mortar squad in Vietnam. There is a lot more I could say, but I don’t like talking about the hell we lived thru.
