Comments: I am writing this for my father, Earl E. Burt. He served in the 1st Marines, 1st Division as a Corpmen with the Navy and was wounded on Bunker Hill. After returning from Japan, he was assigned to the Shore Party and didn't return to the front. I'm trying to help him find some of his buddies during this time. Some of their names were: CC Carter, Sgt. Fielding, Newberry, Danny Izzo. Please email me if you remember my father. Thanks! Debbie Burt

Comments: My uncle, Sgt. William Clark Crowe, Jr. was KIA on the 24th of April, 1951. A postcard I have from him reveals he was in H&S Co., 1st Bn., 1st Marines, 1st Div. FMF(?). My Question is: was his unit at Horseshoe Ridge that day? If so, that makes it likely that's where he was KIA. I haven't got his USMC record yet and don't know if it will reveal this info.

Any info. will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dr. Wm. Littlejohn

The Regimental Hike was called "the Boondockers Supreme". I would like to get in touch with anyone who participated in this Hike with me to exert my "bull session" privileges.

Comments: I'm trying to help my father-in-law, Joseph Contino find Edward A. Roberts ("Robby"). Last seen 8-16-52 at Bunker Hill.

Here is all the information I have on my father-in-law, Joseph A. Contino:

Service No. 1214783, Rank E2 Company B, 1st Battalion, 1st Marines, 1st Marine Division

He has been trying to locate Edward A. Roberts ("Robby"). Last seen 8-16-52 at Bunker Hill. Also James A. Sato (or could possibly be James M. Asato) Service No. 1217328. John J. Cordero, service no. 1169409.

All 3 were in the same company and last seen August, 1952 or before on Bunker Hill (122), Korea.

Would I receive an e-mail should someone know something, or am I to continue checking the website? I've printed the newsletter you recently sent and am mailing to my father-in-law in Port St. Lucie, Florida. As he is not online, I am his link.
