Comments: I seeking any veterans who might be able to assist me in researching a Marine who served in Korea from 1951-1954. I came across his war medals and wanted to know more about this Marine and only have so much to go on. All I know is that he was a Sgt in the 5th Marine Regiment, Second Battalion in Dog Company w/ the First Marine Division. His last name may have been Stasi and that about all I have. If there is anyone who might be able to offer some help in finding out more about this Marine or even possibly finding a roster for this particular outfit, I would be greatly appreciative. I look forward to any and all correspondences as I am a former Marine myself serving from 92' - 96' with the 3rd Marine Division. I wish everyone well and Semper Fi.

Comments: I am a son of David V. LaBrie who was section leader of a machine gun platoon(50 cal.), weapons company, 2nd Bat., 5th Marine Reg. He was involved in the fighting for Vegas, Reno, and Carson Hills. He was wounded and received the Purple Heart. He is alive and well today but his memory is going. I am becoming interested in his war history and he and I would be happy if I found some guys he used to serve with him. I found some other names at this site that I thought he might remember but he doesn't recognize any. Maybe some of you remember him. He is from Vermont and went to boot camp at Paris Island. Does anyone know of a regimental history available or roster info? Thanks.
