Item Company I-3-5 - Whereabouts of LS Hart

Comments: Seeking information on USMC Pfc L. S. Hart from Washington state. Served with my father Pfc Robert Lehman. Hart was severely wounded after relieving my father at a forward position. A USN Corpsman reported that Hart's wound was fatal; he was included in a memorial service held in the field. But Hart is not listed as KIA in any place I have looked, and the casualty card, which I received a decade ago, indicates that Hart had been evacuated to the USN hospital ship Hope for transport to US.
