He was in a few different Battalions in his 4 year hitch, he was with Co "E" 2nd Battalion 1st Marines 1st Marine Division April of 63, Co "I" 3rd Battalion 9th Marines 3rd Marine Division July 63 - May 64, Co "E" 2nd Battalion 7th Marines 1st Marine Division July 64 - June 65. Then it was off to Vietnam with the 2nd Battalion 7th Marines 3rd Marine Division July 65 - November 65, 1st Battalion 4th Marines 3rd Marine division November 65 - March 66. Some of the places in Vietnam were Qui Nhon, Chu Lai, Phu Bai and Dai Nang, that's a few places I know he was stationed, I imagine there was many more.

He was an 0331 machine gunner and an ammo man, he was wounded on March 20th 1966 at Phu Bai in a mortar attack. After rotating around and finally getting back to the states he served his time out and in mid 1967.
