Last night I awoke to the sounds of thunder. I was recalling a small part of a day a long time ago. As if it was yesterday...
Today is a particularly dreary, rainy day. Lookout Mountain is socked in good. It is not unusual for it to be socked in. Hell they fought the Battle Above the Clouds there during the Civil War.
However, today it put me in mind of another dreary, socked in ridge I was on for around 2 hours on 3 June, 1968. Known only to me as Hill 200, it was a desolate, indefensible place that somebody in the 1st Mardiv G3 shop picked off the map to insert my platoon on as an observation post & radio relay.

A narrative account of Reconnaissance Marines in Vietnam. Small Teams launching daring deep Stingray patrols in the bush. On the Observation Post, Hill 119 defending for 600 relentless days and nights. Surrounded by the NVA with the constant challenge of determining friendly Vietnamese civilians from hard corps Viet Cong and North Vietnamese regulars.

In 1969 and 1970, Delta Company, 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division manned the OP and ran patrols in Phu Loc Valley and Go Noi Island. This firsthand account of the Marines and Corpsmen who patrolled deep and occupied the OP describes their struggle to survive. Based on participant interviews and the detailed declassified debriefing reports compiled after each patrol returned to their rear base, at Camp Reasoner, Da Nang in the Republic of South Vietnam. This is their history!

Gunny Pu
I have a picture Gunny Pu gave to me 15-20 years of him and his PRU company. He told me that they worked out of a building in Danang they called the White House. I was interviewing Reconners for their personal history. I had arranged a mini-reunion in LV, about 20 people including spouses showed. It was past 0200 and well into our cups listening to Gunny weave his stories, mostly emphasized with grunts and sneers. I had recently completed a visit to VN and I asked Gunny to return with me. I promised him we would find the White House. david snider <docsnidley@aol.com>

Sergeant Ernie Wayne Wallace
Local war hero retired U.S. Marine Corps Master Sgt. Ernie W. Wallace passed away Tuesday, March 11, 2008, after a long and courageous battle with lung cancer. Ernie passed away peacefully at his home in North Ferry Farm with his family at his side.
Ernie was born Jan. 30, 1944, in Wayne, W.Va., to Susie Maynard Wallace and Ernie Wallace. After graduation from Wayne County High School, Ernie enlisted in the Marine Corps, which resulted in a 22-year career.
A highly decorated veteran, Ernie received numerous awards, including the Navy Cross, the second-highest medal awarded by the Department of the Navy and the second-highest award given for valor. Ernie's heroic action during Operation Starlite, the first major campaign of the Vietnam War, is on display at the National Marine Corps Museum and was televised by Fox News.
After retirement from the Marine Corps, Ernie applied his work ethic at PermaTreat in Fredericksburg. Ernie enjoyed the hard labor and the opportunity to form many long-lasting and mutually respectful friendships. Ernie's reputation for honesty and a "job done right the first time" earned him a second successful career, where he served as service and sales manager.
Ernie's many quiet enjoyments during his lifetime included beekeeping. During an interview with reporter Amy Umble of The Free Lance-Star, Ernie admitted to admiring the work ethic of the honeybee and stated, "If the population of the U.S. would work like bees, we'd be very productive. They're always working." Ernie kept several hives for farms and friends around the area, and sold his honey locally at Roxbury Mills and produce stands.
Ernie also mentored several other beekeepers hoping to help save the local honeybee population.
Preceded in death by his parents, Ernie is survived by his loving wife, Donna Woodard Wallace, and Donna's parents, Clarence and Ruth Woodard, who thought of Ernie as their son. Ernie leaves behind two daughters, Anne Asercion and her husband, Alex, and Shelley Stone and her husband, Bowen; three sons, Jon Wallace and his wife, Lisa, Chad Curtis and his wife, Christine, and Bret Curtis; and nine grandchildren, Collin, Logan, Devyn, Adaire, Abigail, Kaila, Kendall, Krysten, and Diana. Ernie also leaves one sister, Kathryn Jervis and her husband, Jay; and three brothers, John Wallace and his wife, Wila-Dean, Charlie Wallace and his wife, Joyce, and Clyde Wallace; and numerous nieces and nephews. Ernie also leaves behind two brothers-in-law, Gregg Woodard and his wife, Robin, and Robert Woodard.

The Most Decorated Single Unit In
The Vietnam War
In June of 1966 Marine Reconnaissance teams were being sent out to look for enemy movements in the area west of the Chu Lai Marine Base. One of those teams was an 18-man patrol from Charlie Co. 1st Recon, lead by then Staff Sgt. Jimmie Howard. They were inserted by helicopter to the top of Hill 488, some 20 miles west of Chu Lai.
.
They didn’t know it then, but this patrol would become the most highly decorated single unit in the Vietnam War.
.
On June 13, shortly after they had been inserted on top of Hill 488, they began to spot enemy activity. They were supported by an Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) 105mm howitzer battery. They called in artillery missions on those movements. Two days later, they spotted even more enemy movements and again began calling in artillery missions. It became obvious to the enemy troops that they were being observed and they had a fair idea as to where they were being observed from as well.
.
It was shortly after that when Staff Sgt. Howard reported on the radio that there were squads of NVA force, later identified as being from the 3rd NVA Regiment, that were beginning to move toward his position on top of Hill 488.
.
In the total darkness, just after midnight on June 15th, 1966 the NVA began probing the Recon team’s position. One of the Navy Hospital Corpsman with the team, B.C. Holmes, recalled, “They were within 20 feet of us. Suddenly there were grenades all over the place. People started hollering. Guys were getting hit at the same time.”
.
In other words, all hell broke loose for this 18 man Recon team, which was clearly outnumbered. But they fought back with a ferocity that would later be recognized by the Marines that were airlifted out to help them get out of that mess.
.
The 3rd NVA regiment forces were coming at them with everything they had. The Recon Marines’ position was being swept by AK-47 and heavy machine gun fire from everywhere. Howard got on the radio and reported to Lt. Col. Arthur Sullivan.
“You’ve got to get us out of here,” he told Sullivan. “There are too many of them for my people.”
.
Sullivan immediately called in Marine and Air Force air support. Marine Huey gunships began strafing runs to within 20 feet of the Recon perimeters and Marine and Air Force fighter jets were dropping bombs as close as 100 meters from their position. This helped to slow down the NVA assault on Howard’s Recon Marines, but the enemy stayed in the fight throughout the night, firing AK-47 rifle fire at the Reconners all night.
.
Things couldn’t have been worse for Howards Recon team. They were running out of ammo. In fact, they started throwing rocks at the enemy, hoping that they would think that they were grenades.
.
During the night, Howard himself was hit in the back by AK-47 rifle fire. This temporarily paralyzed his legs, but not his spirit. He dragged himself from position to position throughout the night, encouraging his men, keeping them in the fight, even though every last one of them had been wounded.
.
At Dawn, UH-34 helicopters from Marine Aircraft Group 36 (MAG 36) flew in Marines from Charlie Co. 1st Bn, 5th Marines out of Chu Lai. They were led by 1st Lt. Marshall Darling. They were inserted at the base of Hill 488 and began to assault the NVA 3rd Regiment forces from below in the effort to help break the siege on the Reconners at the top of the hill. As they got to the top of Hill 488, they reported that when they approached the Recon Marines, nearly all of them were armed with AK-47s they had taken from the enemy dead.
.
Every one of the Recon Marines and Corpsmen had been wounded, most more than one time. The Marines from C/1/5 counted 42 dead NVA around the Recon position. In this fight, the Marines suffered 10 KIA, including 2 from C/1/5 and 2 from one of the Huey squadrons, meaning that 6 of the 18 Charlie, 1st Recon team members were among those KIA.
.
When it was all over, Staff Sgt, Jimmie Howard would be awarded the Medal of Honor; Ricardo Binns and Hospital Corpsman, B.C. Holmes would receive the Navy Cross; J.T. Adams and J.R. Thompson would be awarded the Navy Cross posthumously; Charles Bosley, Hospital Corpsman R.J. Fitzpatrick, Raymond Hildreth, Joseph Kosoglow, Robert Martinez, Daniel Mulvihill, William Norman, Thomas Powells, and Ralph Victor, would be awarded Silver Stars; And Ignatius Carlisi, T.D. Glawe, J.C. McKinney and A.N. Mascarenas would receive the Silver Star posthumously.
All 18 men were awarded for their valor that night on top of Hill 488.

The Battle of Hill 488
Corpsman, Up!
After a harrowing recon mission, the author would leave Vietnam with mental scars far worse than his physical wounds.
By Ralph DiPietro
In 1967, I was a Navy hospital corpsman assigned to Charlie Company, 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division. We initially were based at Chu Lai and later at Da Nang, Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam). A Navy corpsman’s job is to save lives, and I was honored to serve with the Marines. They called me “Doc.”
Recon’s main function was to pinpoint the locations of Viet Cong (VC) and North Vietnamese Army (NVA) troops in strongholds near us. We patrolled in small teams of usually 10 to 12 men. Because we would be on patrol for four to seven days, we traveled light and wore no flak jackets or helmets.
The night before one patrol in May 1967, Sergeant Rosas, who would lead the mission, was briefed that an NVA division had been spotted approximately 20 miles southwest of Da Nang in an area we called Charlie Ridge. Our probability of enemy contact was high—Charlie Ridge was a staging area for the NVA to harass Marine units.
Michael Lee Hazelton
Michael was a member of Marine Recruit Platoon 145 - The Arizona Platoon - that went through boot camp at MCRD San Diego in 1965. Served with 1st Reconnaissance Battalion in Viet Nam. Discharged at the rank of Sergeant on June 30, 1968.

Gunnery Sergeant Jimmie E. Howard
The Marine Corps Medal of Honor Recipients
For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty as a Platoon Leader, Company "C", First Reconnaissance Battalion, First Marine Division (Reinforced), Fleet Marine Force, Pacific, in action against communist insurgent forces in Quang Tin Province, Republic of Vietnam, on 16 June 1966. During the night Gunnery Sergeant(then Staff Sergeant) Howard's platoon of eighteen men was assaulted by a numerically superior force consisting of a well-trained North Vietnamese Battalion employing heavy small arms fire, automatic weapons and accurate mortar fire. Without hesitation he immediately organized his platoon to personally supervise the precarious defense of Hill 488. Utterly oblivious to the unrelenting fury of hostile enemy weapons fire and hand grenades he repeateldly exposed himself to enemy fire while directing the operation of his small force. As the enemy attack progressed and the enemy fire increased in volume and accuracy and despite his mounting casualties, Gunnery Sergeant Howard continued to set an example of calmness and courage. Moving from position to position, he inspired his men with dynamic leadership and courageous fighting spirit until he was struck and painfully wounded by fragments from an enemy hand grenade. Unable to move his legs and realizing the the position was becoming untenable, he distributed his ammunition to the remaining members of his platoon and skillfully directed friendly aircraft and artillery strikes with uncanny accuracy upon the enemy. Dawn found the beleaguered force diminished by five killed and all but one wounded. When rescue helicopters proceeded to Gunnery Sergeant's position, he directed them away from his badly mauled force and called additional air strikes and directed devastating small arms fire on the enemy thus making the landing zone secure as possible. His valiant leadership and courageous fighting spirit served to inspire the men of his platoon to heroic endeavor in the face of overwhelming odds, and reflected the highest credit upon Gunnery Sergeant Howard, the Marine Corps and the United States Naval Service.

The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to Second Lieutenant [then Sergeant] Phillip E. Prince (MCSN: 1531289), United States Marine Corps, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action while serving as the Senior Advisor/Marine Squad Leader of Combined Action Platoon P2 and 4, III Marine Amphibious Force in connection with combat operations against the enemy in the Republic of Vietnam. Early on the morning of 11 May 1967, Second Lieutenant Prince was located with his unit in Trieu Ai Village in Quang Tri Province when the friendly force came under an intense attack from a reinforced company-size North Vietnamese Army unit with attached sappers. Reacting instantly, Second Lieutenant Prince quickly rallied his small force, which consisted of two Marine rifle squads and twenty Vietnamese Popular Forces soldiers, and fearlessly directed them as they defended their compound against the attackers. With complete disregard for his own safety, Second Lieutenant Prince repeatedly exposed himself to hostile fire as he rushed across the fire-swept terrain from one position to another, simultaneously directing the fire of his men and Marine supporting arms from the Dong Ha Combat Base, and assisting to extinguish fires ignited within the compound by enemy ordnance. When the ammunition storage bunker caught fire and the remaining ammunition within the compound was threatened, Second Lieutenant Prince leaped on top of the bunker and further exposed himself to enemy fire as he daringly battled the blaze until he brought it under control, thereby saving his unit’s major source of ammunition. Although the enemy made several attacks against the perimeter during the one hour fire fight, the defense held and the enemy force was repulsed. Determined to exploit any advantage gained by forcing the enemy to withdraw, Second Lieutenant Prince then organized a reaction force and led it out of his compound to secure the area outside the defensive perimeter and to clear a landing zone for medical evacuation helicopters. His heroic and timely actions inspired all who observed him and were instrumental in defeating the hostile force. By his courage, aggressive leadership and unwavering devotion to duty in the face of great personal danger, Second Lieutenant Prince upheld the highest traditions of the Marine Corps and of the United States Naval Service.

Toward the end of World War II, he enlisted in the US Navy at the age of seventeen and served as a fire controlman on the USS Macon. He graduated in 1950 from Manhattan College, was commissioned the same year as a Marine second lieutenant, and in 1951 married Elaine Ryan. Colonel McKeon was in the US military for twenty-eight years altogether.
From 1951 to 1963, he served on Okinawa, at Quantico, and at Camp Lejeune and for three years at the Marine Corps recruiting station in Hartford, CT.

Silver Star
Awarded for actions during the Vietnam War
The President of the United States of America takes pride in presenting the Silver Star (Posthumously) to Sergeant Larry Allen Johnson (MCSN: 2232731), United States Marine Corps, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action while serving with Company A, First Reconnaissance Battalion, FIRST Marine Division (Rein.), FMF, in connection with combat operations against the enemy in the Republic of Vietnam. On the afternoon of 20 September 1968, Sergeant Johnson was the Assistant Patrol Leader of a reconnaissance team operating near Thoung Duc in Quang Nam Province when the Marines came under a heavy volume of automatic weapons fire from a large enemy force and sustained several casualties. Reacting instantly, Sergeant Johnson boldly ran across fifteen meters of fire-swept terrain to the side of a wounded radioman where he took the radio and simultaneously administered first aid while he accurately directed air strikes upon the hostile soldiers, which disorganized their attack. Continuing his determined efforts, he skillfully directed helicopters into a landing zone to extract the beleaguered Marines and assisted in evacuating casualties. Alertly observing a fatally wounded Marine, he delayed his own extraction further while he maneuvered across the hazardous area to the casualty. Ignoring the intense enemy fire, he then carried his fallen comrade to a waiting helicopter and, while placing him aboard, Sergeant Johnson was mortally wounded. His heroic actions and sincere concern for the welfare of his comrades were an inspiration to all who observed him and contributed immeasurably to the accomplishment of his unit's mission. By his courage, resolute determination and steadfast devotion to duty, Sergeant Johnson upheld the highest traditions of the Marine Corps and of the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life for his country.
