MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE VIETNAM VETERANS OF 2D BATTALION, 1ST MARINES

Brothers, Families & Friends, Today as we dedicate these plaques to our Fallen Brothers, for many of us, this will be our first opportunity to have a Ceremony of Remembrance to their Service and Sacrifice. It is appropriate that this Dedication occur as we Commemorate the deployment of our Battalion to Vietnam 50 years ago. Many of us here may remember the details of when we left for war and many may remember the day we came home, but all of us remember Marines and Corpsmen named on these plaques, they were our brothers and they will never be forgotten. When a Brother fell on the battlefield, there was no Funeral, no Service, no sitting Shiva, no Wake, there Was No Closure, No Finality. Today is that Day, we will Cry, we will Laugh, We Will Remember. May God Bless The Marines & Corpsmen named on these plaques, and may God Bless the 2nd Battalion 1st Marines. Semper Fidelis, Paul Mangan - President Vietnam Veterans 2nd Battalion 1st Marines

LIEUTENANT COLONEL JONATHAN SMITH ProfessionaIs,

Welcome home! Although it is for a somber occasion, the current generation of the "Professionals" couldn't be happier to have you back in Horno. Your influence runs strong through the veins of the Marines and Sailors in the Battalion today. Our current logo displays your call sign (GUNSMOKE), your operating concept (Ghost Battalion) and your moniker (The "Professionals"). There isn't a day that goes by when we don't feel the pressure to uphold the legacy which you forged. Your honor, courage and commitment to America, the Marine Corps and each other stands as a staggering reminder of what the standard of excellence looks like.

Today we will memorialize our brothers who fell on the battlefield many decades ago. The day will challenge all of our nerves. For those who have lost fellow warriors in combat closure is a tough thing to come by. No matter how challenging today's memorial is you should take solace that this memorial sets the stage for generations of "Professionals" to witness the price paid in Vietnam. Marines and Sailors will pass in the shadow of this memorial during countless events demanding that they stand a little taller, hump a little farther or run a little faster if they want to measure up. We owe our remarkable reputation to you and the heroes on this wall. The Marine Corps is the most feared fighting organization in the world because of the sacrifices of those on this wall and the veterans here to pay their respects - Thank You.....We owe our successes as a Corps and a nation all to you.

Semper Fidelis,

VIETNAM VETERANS OF 2D BATTALION, 1ST MARINES, FMF

Vietnam Veterans of 2d Battalion, 1st Marines is a non-profit, non-political, fraternal association of all Vietnam veterans who served with or supported the battalion in Vietnam from 1965 to 1971. The primary purpose of the Association is to assist members of the organization, including next of kin, and to educate the general public about the actions and accomplishments of the battalion and its members and provide true and accurate depictions of events and experiences from the perspective of the individual grunt.

In 1983, Bob Hughes (Hotel 2/1) attended a gathering of Marines from Hotel 2/5 and wondered about how to do the same for Hotel 2/1. Based on that experience, Bob contacted a few members of Hotel 2/1, and they met the following year. With help from David “Doc” Johnson, the function grew a little larger in each succeeding year and expanded to include members from the other companies: Echo, Fox, Golf, and H&S. The 1989 reunion, held at the Holiday Inn, Washington, DC, consisted of 32 attendees. From there it grew into the organization we have today of approximately 1,400 members. Soon it became apparent that the loose group that met every year needed to incorporate because of tax issues with donations and dues. In the mid-1990s a vote was taken to incorporate and become a non-profit under the tax code. Bob, who resided in New Jersey, contacted an attorney who submitted the necessary documents. Thus, The Vietnam Veterans of the Second Battalion, First Marines, FMF was sanctioned as a non-profit corporation in New Jersey with four officers and five trustees. A few years later we also were sanctioned by the US IRS as a 501(c) 3 non-profit corporation.

The last two years have seen the organization undertake two large projects, the installation of a monument on the grounds of The National Museum of the Marines Corps at Quantico, VA and plaques honoring our fallen at the Memorial Garden at Camp Horno aboard Camp Pendleton, California.

Over the years the membership has grown to about 1,400 members, worldwide; next of kin are automatic members. The organization has evolved such that we now meet annually on a four-year rotation with Washington, DC; West Coast; Central West; and Central East.

HISTORY OF 2D BATTALION, 1ST MARINES

2d Battalion, 1st Marines was first activated on 1 August 1922 at Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. It participated in the occupation of that country until deactivated 20 July 1924.

2D BATTALION, 1ST MARINES IN VIETNAM

2d Battalion, 1st Marines moved from Camp San Mateo, Camp Pendleton, CA, on 10 August 1965 to the port at San Diego, CA, for embarkation aboard USS Bexar (APA-237). Arriving on Okinawa for training, the battalion was organized as a Battalion Landing Team and, along with attachments, became the Special Landing Force (SLF), 7th Fleet. The first landing in Vietnam came shortly thereafter in platoon-sized increments for familiarization. The first landing as a force came in the Dagger Thrust operations starting on 25 September. With a short trip to the Philippines to support possible operations in Indonesia, the battalion returned to the coast of Vietnam. In December, while attached to the 3d Marine Division, the battalion participated in Operation Harvest Moon. Later in the month it was permanently moved ashore and assigned responsibility for the defense of the Hue-Phu Bai Airfield. For the next several months, the battalion patrolled that area and participated in several operations including New York, Troy, Oregon and Jay. In August, after participating in Operation Hastings, the battalion was transferred to the 1st Marine Division and moved south to the Da Nang area. This was the northern edge of what became known as Dodge City, an area west of Route 1 about 10 miles south of Da Nang Air Base. The month of September saw patrolling and several operations, Cannon and Coffee among them. November and December saw continued patrolling in the same area. The early months of 1967 saw the battalion involved in several County Fairs, Medcaps and Operations Independence, Lafayette and Stone. In October the battalion moved from the Da Nang area north to Quang Tri. It mounted a heliborne assault into the Hai Lang Forest during Operation Medina and later in the month participated in Operation Granite. In December the battalion took over the defenses of , securing the approach from the DMZ. The battalion remained at Con Thien for the first several months of 1968 before participating in Operation Pegasus, the relief of Khe Sanh. Along with 2d Battalion, 4th Marines, 2/1 advanced up Route 9 to the combat base. The battalion was then responsible for the final destruction of the base prior to evacuating it in July. It was at Khe Sanh that the battalion was named “Ghost Battalion” by the NVA. Shortly after leaving Khe Sanh, the battalion was involved in Operations Scotland II and Napoleon Saline. A raid into the DMZ was launched in August before the battalion headed south to the Cau Ha Combat Base. The battalion participated in Operation Meade River in November. 1969 opened with the battalion at Cau Ha using intensive patrolling to secure the Rocket Belt around Da Nang. June saw the battalion move to the Dodge City area and stepped off on Operation Pipestone Canyon to sweep Dodge City and Go Noi Island. Later, it headed into the Que Son Mountains for Operation Durham Peak. In August it returned to the Cau Ha area and resumed intensive patrolling. The year 1970 opened with a large land-clearing operation in the portion of the AO that bordered the South China Sea. In late January the battalion moved from the Cau Ha Combat Base to Camp Lauer at the base of Marble Mountain. The battalion continued intensive patrolling of the Da Nang rocket belt with one company participating in Operation Dubois Square in September. 2d Battalion, 1st Marines has the distinction as the last Marine Infantry Battalion to redeploy from Vietnam. Prior to leaving, there was one more operation, Scotch Orchard, which went up to, and maybe into, Laos in search of American POWs. During May and June, redeployment was completed with the last elements embarked aboard USS Denver (LPD-9). MEDAL OF HONOR

2d Battalion, 1st Marines had three Medals of Honor Awarded during the Vietnam years. They are marked on the plaques with and inverted five pointed star representing the actual medal.

The first, PFC Gary Martini, was awarded his for actions that took place on 21 April 1967 at the beginning of Operation Union while a member of Fox Co. He exposed himself to enemy fire in an assault on the enemy position after 14 Marines of his platoon were killed and 18 were wounded. He then again left his position of safety, not once but twice, pulling two wounded Marines to safety. His award was posthumous.

The second was PFC Dewayne T. Williams of Hotel Co. On his 19th birthday, 18 September 1968, while engaged with the enemy, he rolled on a grenade, sacrificing himself to save his comrades. His award also was posthumous.

The third, LCpl Emilio Albert De La Garza, Jr. of Echo Co, has a similar story of self-sacrifice. While attempting to apprehend an enemy combatant on 11 April 1970, he placed himself between a grenade and two other Marines, absorbing the blast. His award was posthumous.

MISSING IN ACTION

There are still two members of 2d Battalion, 1st Marines who are unaccounted for. They are marked on the plaques with an asterisk.

LCpl Roger D. Hamilton of Fox Co. He was carried off the battlefield by the NVA following the 21 April 1967 engagement that initiated Operation Union. Infor- mation has been obtained that he remained alive for at least another whole day in the care of local villagers. He was picked up by the NVA and as far as can be determined he was being transported to a field hospital but most likely died during the trip and was buried along the trail. The search for his remains continues.

LCpl Theothis Collins of Fox Co. He became missing in action on 19 August 1968 in the DMZ. While running to assist a helicopter that had been shot down, LCpl Collins disappeared in an artillery barrage. No trace has been found to date. COMMANDING OFFICERS OF 2D BATTALION, 1ST MARINES, 1965-1971

Battalion losses were 561 Marines & Corpsmen. This information has been provided by the Coffeld Data Base, the same data base that provided the data for the Vietnam Memorial (The Wall) in Washington. H&S lost (43), Echo (109), Foxtrot (176), Golf (117) and Hotel (116). Twenty- five of the 561 are Corpsmen, they are included in the company where they were a casualty, not in the H&S total where they were administratively assigned.

We would like to thank the following individuals for their help in making this day come to life:

Rick Burroughs and Libby McNeill of Kline Memorials, Manassas, VA. They took our lists and ideas and designed the plaques you see on the wall.

Matthews Architectural Co. Pittsburg, PA for casting the finished product.

Stacy Ford of Ford Signs, Oceanside, CA for the installation of the plaques.

Linda Sundram of the Rotary Club of Camp Pendleton. She is the moving force behind the Memorial Garden. A special thanks for getting the wall built for our plaques. We hope this will become a special place for the Marines of the regiment.

Bill Robb, 2/1’s Family Readiness Officer. He was the liaison between us old guys and the current 2/1. This day couldn’t have happened without him.

Phil Kenny Tim Stanton, Echo 2/1 On Left From On Right FORD SIGNS Inspecting Finished Memorial Plaque We would like to thank all who contributed to the Memorial Plaque Fund listed below. Additionally, we would like to thank those that contributed to the Monument project in Quantico. Excess funds from that project were carried over and used in this undertaking.
