PROUD SON OF 3RD MARINE--'Corporal Leo P.(Davis) Dwulit'.
Invaded Bougainville on November 1, 1943. Site is excellent...I
am currently searching for all info, pictures that I can find on
the Bougainville Invasion, and my father. My father(Leo), and his
buddy (Lenny), used to draw a circle on the beach at
Bougainville, and dance the jitterbug to (Milo Muslins')
accordion, for the troops coming out of the jungle. If anyone has
a picture of my Dad (LEO) on Bougainville, or especially dancing
the jitterbug, please let me know.
Leo told me stories about the natives being afraid to go up in
the hills at night..."I E Ku get you Leo" they would
say to him. Leo passed away on February 25, 1998...even at the
end,he spoke of his Marine Buddies and I E Ku.
The 3rd Marines are always in my prayers, David Leo (Davis)

I am the youngest son of "doc" Fleenor and am doing
this posting as a favor for my father. He has great pride in the
3rd Division and wears it in a smile in each conversaton about
it's history. He was there for Bougainville and was still his
platoon's corpman up to when operation "Olympic" was
cancelled. He is a lifetime member of the assoc. and forever a
marine. Any replies to him are more than welcome to be placed

The information listed above is regarding my grandfather who
passed away before I was born. I am trying to compile information
regarding his WWII involvement for my son who was named after
him. This is what I know so far: He was in Panama, Iceland, New
Foundland, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Guadalcanal, and
Bouginville. He was injured in Guam and sent to the hospital in
Hawaii. He was also part of a group that defended Henderson Field
in Guadalcanal that suffered many casualties. If there is anyone
out there that knew my grandfather or can help with any
information, please contact me. Also, thank you to all of those
who fought in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. Everyday I enjoy the
freedom you fought to preserve. My generation so often takes our
way of life for granted. But there are some of us who pause each
time we see "Old Glory" and get chills thinking of what
the red stripes symbolize. Your immeasurable courage is
appreciated. God Bless you all!

I am making this entry for my father-in-law, originally from
New york City, who served in the Guadalcanal, Bougainville and
Guam campaigns in a Marine Tank unit. He received a purple heart
for a shrapnel wound at Bougainville, I think. He was in the
Marines from early 1942, until ankle injury on Guam in late 1944.
Mustered out from hospital in 8/45. He would like to hear from
men from his units, but his e-mail skills are shaky. You could
write to him and cc me (Mike Yanega) at

Dear Fellow Marines, We need your help!
I represent a group of Marine Veterans, Veterans Families and
Veterans Friends. We are trying to change the negative image of
Vietnam Veterans that keeps resurfacing. Although we can not stop
a image from surfacing, we want the American People to recognize
a good image as well.
Most of the men in our group once served in Vietnam in the
Marine Unit: The Combined Action Program.
We have a web site at www.CapVeterans.com that we would love
you to visit and pass the word about.
Many people would think that improving the image of Vietnam
Veterans is impossible, but we do not think us. However, we'll
need some help along the way.
With the movie Pearl Harbor coming out in two weeks and the
recent stories about another Vietnamese Massacre, we think our
window of opportunity is perfect. Americans are in search of
'Real' positive heroes. (Survivors)
Please visit the web site and give us any support you can
give. Thanks Jack Cunningham Vietnam Vet Cap Marine

Hero From Newberry
Not far from the center of Newberry, Michigan, down
Dollarville Road, is the Forest Home Cemetery where an aging
headstone marks the gravesite of one of Americas genuine
heroes,Sergeant Clifford Dan (Crossett) Williams, U. S. Marine
Corps. Over 33 years ago Newberry residents gathered on
that hallowed ground to honor the Marine that gave his life in
the Republic of Vietnam. Sergeant Williams had been a resident of
Newberry prior to volunteering for the Marines. When he
died leading an attack against an enemy position on that far away
battlefield in the spring of 1968 he left behind a mother, wife,
son, daughter, 7 sisters and 4 brothers. On July 14th of
this year, the Marine Corps will pay honor and tribute to the
legacy of Sergeant Williams by presenting to his family members
the Silver Star Medal, the nations third highest military
award for heroism.
Sergeant Williams and Navy Corpsman Doc Felle were
digging their foxhole for the evening on March 27,1968 when the
sound of enemy mortars could be heard leaving their
launchers. The first barrage of mortars would find targets
wounding Sergeant Williams and 2dLt John M. Holladay, the platoon
commander. With Holladay in grave danger of dying from loss
of blood, Williams and Felle attempted to control his bleeding
while requesting a medevac helicopter. While
waiting for the helicopter another enemy mortar barrage commenced
and Doc Felle and Sergeant Williams placed their
bodies over their platoon commander to shield him from further
injury. Sergeant Williams then directed the helicopter to
the battlefield location and 2dLt Holladay was medevaced to a
hospital ship. Only then would Sergeant Williams allow
Corpsmen Felle to treat his wounds. Sergeant Williams,
being the next senior Marine, then assumed command of the platoon
for the completion of the operation.
A month later while recovering in the Naval Hospital in Guam
2dLt Holladay was told the sad news that his Platoon Sergeant and
Corpsman, the men who had saved his life, had been killed in
action. Although it was true that Sergeant Williams had
died, the report regarding Corpsman Felle was in error.
During the battle 35 Marines and 2 Corpsmen were killed but
battlefield reports are often subject to error due to the
confusion of the moment. During his stay in the hospital,
2dLt Holladay drafted award recommendations recognizing the
heroism of Sergeant Williams and Corpsman Felle.
On the day that Sergeant Williams was killed Corpsman Felle
was by his side early in the battle. Felle had already
given him 2 Purple Hearts for wounds and one more would assure
him a trip out of Viet Nam. It was the policy to send any
Marine home who had received 3 Purple Hearts. Williams had just
returned from an R&R (rest and recuperation) in Hawaii with
his wife Kristine. During the battle Williams sent Corpsman
Felle over to a gravely wounded Marine while he advanced toward
the enemy with his M-16 on full automatic. This was the last time
Felle would ever see his foxhole buddy and friend. That
day, April 30, 1968, Sergeant Williams was killed while attacking
an enemy position.
Nearly 30 years would pass before the reunion of Felle and
Williamss son, Wayne Williams. They cried and talked
about the dad that he never knew. There were pictures they
shared and memories that Felle had of Waynes dad. It
was their goal not to let the name of Sergeant Williams be
forgotten.
2dLt Holladay would stay in the Marines advancing to Colonel,
never forgetting the Marine and Corpsman that had saved his life
on the battlefield in Vietnam. Many years later Holladay
found out that the award recommendations had been
lost and that Williams and Felle had never been
recognized for their heroism. On March 27, 1999, 31
years to the day after Williams, Felle and Holladay lay on the
battlefield, now retired Colonel Holladay received an email from
his old platoon Corpsman Doc Felle.
Over the past 2 years the lost awards have been
resubmitted and approved by the Commandant of the Marine Corps
and the Secretary Of the Navy. Once again, on July 14, 2001 the
three members of 1st Platoon, Company K, 3rd Battalion, 9thMarine
Regiment, 3rd Marine Division will be reunited when the Silver
Star Medal is presented at Sergeant Williamss
gravesite. Marines always take care of their own.

Request any assistance in locating anyone who served with my
father Charles "Chuck" Templin, Sr., in Vietnam during
his three tours. He died a proud Marine in 1979 before I could
know him as an adult. He never spoke of his tours and what he did
in the Corps, I only know he was an 0311 and damn proud of his
service. He served in the Corps from 1954 to 1974. Duty stations
included Camp Lejuene (1963-1965), Nellis AFB (1966-1967), and
Camp Pendleton (1969-1974). From 1962 to 1969 he served in Viet
Nam three times. Please contact me if you have any other
knowledge about my father.

To my fellow Third Division Brothers, in the not too distant
future, look for a new book on Iwo Jima, titled "Iwo Jima -
36 Days of Hell!" This book details the battle for Iwo Jima
from the perspective of three Marines who fought in the battle.
One from the Fifth Divison, the Fourth Division, and the Third
Division (Chuck Nolte, who is a Third Division Association
member). The book gives these three Marine's day-by-day
description of the battle, for the entire 36 days. There is also
a CORRECT version of the "Final Battle", that took
place on March 26, the last day of the battle, in the area of the
5th Pioneer Battalion's AO. More than twenty-five 5th Pioneers
tell of the battle, that morning, and how Lt. Harry Martin's
leadership and death, earned him the last Congressional Medal of
Honor to be awarded on Iwo. (A little point of interest that most
people do not know: Nearly a quarter, or 25%, of all Medals of
Honor, awarded during World War II, were awarded to the Marines
and Navy personnel, during the "36 Days of Hell!", on
Iwo Jima. To all my Comarades, thank you for your service, your
loyalty, your patriotism, and your love of Corps and Country.

pissed. I got to be friendly with a few of them, and I don't
blame them for being pissed. Couple of them had almost 8 months

Mr. Maury Williams visited Guam, the old battlesites, in 1997
and took a good many photos, which I have posted for him on my
sons site, as well as a Poem he wrote in remembrance of the good
men lost in that battle. He has pics of Asan beach, crashed
Marine Corsair, and several others. There is also a link to an AP
article about him returning items taken from a Japanese soldier
he had killed. he is working on putting together more of that
return trip, letters from comrades, and memorys of the battles. I
would hope that some in the Division would check it out for him,
and continue to offer support and feedback. He tells me he is a
lifetime member of 3rd Div. Assoc. And he uis a Semper Fi Heart.
Same Division and Regiment as my dad, tho they did not know one
another. I will try to post the URL here as a link, but failing
that, it is johnmancuso.homestead.com then look for the link to
Mr. Williams pages. Direct link http://johnmancuso.Homestead.com/MWILLIAMS2.html

he would only respond as saying all he did was peel potatoes. I
have found two letters he wrote to family members dated Decemeber

In Memory of my brother David. You did what the weaker would
never dare to do. You walked where those so critical would never
be brave enough to walk. You saw things that those of lesser
character could never bear to see. You felt the putridness of
fear in the bowels of your soul and yet walked on a mission you
did not choose. May you soul find peace in death, among the
highest of angels of heaven, that did not exist in your last
tortured moments upon the earth. Remember always I love you, my
dearest brother. May God bless you and keep you in his arms.
Love, your little sister, Terri

I was missing my brother, who died in Vietnam in 1969. I want
to speak to someone who might have known him. All I know is he
was in the 9th Marines, 3rd Division and he died @ Dewey Canyon
on March 11, 1969. I miss him so very much. I was just looking
around to see if I saw anyone from that time. Thanks

I'm not sure exactly where to start with this. My ex-husband
was in 3rd Marine Division, Fleet Marine Corps ... boot camp in
Pendelton, and then Viet Nam '66-67, on Cal-Co Island. Believe he
said 5 miles east of Hue. He mentioned the rubber tank of fuel.
He has mentioned to me that there's been a few times he's thought
of trying to connect with some he served with. When he came back
to the States he was stationed in Cherry Point NC. His name is
Norman Rapp... he was drafted from Dayton Ohio... he was one of
the 3 shortest and runtiest guys drafted into the Marines that
day he said. Would certainly appreciate it if anyone could lead
me in the right direction. Thanks to all you guys!

Unfortunately, there aren't too many WWII veterans around now.
My grandpa, PFC Ed Popek, was one of them, and I wanted to share
some of his experience. Ed Popek joined "I" Co., 3 Bn.,
3rd Marines, 3rd Div. on January 1, 1943 on American Samoa. He
participated in a few amphibious landing exercises in the Somoan
and Soloman Islands (landed on Guadalcanal on August 1,
1943)before doing the real thing on Bougainville on Nov. 1, 1943.
He fought as a rifleman and scout on Bougainville, and he said
the fighting there was fierce. He contracted malaria in the
jungle on Bougainville in January 1944, and was shipped back to
the U.S. in February 1944. He spent the rest of the war stateside
recovering from malaria. He got in a little trouble for going
AWOL after the war ended, but after a 6 month confinement, he
served with "F" Co., 2nd Bn., 7th Marine Regt. in China
from June to August 1946 (U.S. Occupation Forces), after which he
was honorably discharged from the Marine Corps. My grandpa wasn't
a hero or anything, just a regular marine infantryman who did his
duty. He died in 1984. I would like to hear from anyone who
served on Bougainville in WWII. I would also like to thank those
who served in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. My generation owes you a
lot.

I'm searching for anyone who went through the Bougainville or
the Guam campaigns, in 1943 and 1944 respectively. Our regiment
was reorganized into the 3rd Provisional Marine Brigade for Guam
and later into the 6th Marine Division for Okinawa. I joined Fox
Battery as a replacement on 11/11/43 on Bougainville. I left my
buddies in Feb. 1944 at our base on Guadalcanal because of Jungle
Rot. I have had no contact since then and would like to reconnect
with anyone who was in Fox Battery, 12th Regt. 3rd Division back
in 1943, 45 & 46. We were a 75MM "Pack Howitzer"
artillery group. Please let me know if anyone is still left.

Was with 3rd AT Btn, H&S Co, Da Nang, June 65-Aug 66.
Actually in Motor T but was assigned to the Reactionary Force, a
squad that made daily search patrol and nightly ambush. Spent
almost the entire year in the bush on that. Anyone around Marble
Mountain during this time. Our squad (or several) went out to
assist other Marines there who were getting chopped up badly.
Soon as we arrived we came under machine gun fire...lasted the
night. One of my squad was killed, and our Lt. injured.

camp on Okinowa. I was on the detail to set up the Regt Supply
for the ships when they came in from the Divisional move from
Japan. Would like to hear from anyone else who served that time
and area.

This is to remember my father who just recently passed away of
complications due to lung cancer. LtCol. Laurier (Larry)
Tremblay. He served with 3 btn 9th motors in Viet Nam. He was
member of the 3rd Mar Div association. and a great guy and a
great father. I will miss him dearly, He joined the Corp in 1946
to get the G.I. bill for college and 25 years later he retired as
a LtCol. He taught me more about myself, respect and pride than
my four years in the Corp. Any one who may have known him, I
would like to hear from you. Semper Fi, Steve

On November 22 at 8PM the Discovery Channel will feature the
Documentary of field medicine called "Real Mash" which
will include the reunion of Colonel John M Holladay (Ret.),1st
Platoon Commander-Kilo 3/9/3 1968 and Raymond A. Felle, Corpsman-
1st platoon, Kilo 3/9/3- 1968 at San Diego's MCRD in April of
this year. The last time they saw each other was on the battle
field Southwest of Cam Lo on March 27, 1968. Col Holladay was
gravely wounded with partially severed carotid, broken arm and
pelvis, stomach, thigh and facial wounds. With the loss of blood
and with continued incoming I was not sure he would live for the
rest of the hour. A brave H-34 crew came in while we continued to
take incoming and medivaced him along with other wounded. That
was the last time I ever saw him or knew his fate till locating
him on the Internet in March, 1999. My foxhole buddy, Sgt.
Clifford (Will) Williams, left the safety of our foxhole to
assist me in treating Lt. Holladay and getting him on the H-34
even while he was wounded himself and we continued to receive
murderous incoming. He could have request a medivac for himself
but did not only allowing me to treat him after medivacing Lt.
Holladay. He then took charge of our platoon until being pulled
out of the field. Sadly, this Marine's Marine was killed not far
from Cam Lo on April 30, 1968 leaving behind a pregnant wife and
a son while we were assisting B 1/9 who was ambushed. We had 31
Marines and Corpsmen KIA day. Lt. Holladay, while recovering in
Guam was told that I was KIA with Sgt. Williams by our wounded
radioman.

Greetings! My father was 3rd div. USMC. Headquarters Co.,
Headquarters Btl. WWII -South Pacific Theatre. Battles consist of
IWO JIMA, BOUGAINVILLE, and GUAM. I lost my dad this past March.
He was very proud of the fact that he was in the Marines and so
were we. He was Chaplain of the MCL/Shawnee Det. in Southern Il.
until he passed. I am serving my 2nd term as suly elected Sec. of
MCLA/Shawnee Unit. I am trying to journal on my father's tour of
duty. He never talked much about the war with his family because
he had all girls and did not feel that it was of good taste.
Later in years he started talking of IWO JIMA and didn't want to
talk about the other two. I am doing this journal,not only for a
tribute to my father; but to all those Marines that fought in
these battles. Also, this will help bring closure to me and my
family. Any help or info. that can be sent to me by e-mail would
be ever appreciated. To all who read or view this, thank you and

I'm hoping someone can help me gather information on my
father-in-law, a Marine with the 3rd Marines in WWII. He served
in several Pacific battles, including Iwo Jima I'm told, even
receiving a commendation or two. He is 77 years old, in failing
health and I and my wife would like to learn more about a part of
his life about which he speaks little. His name is Stephen
Antosiewicz and he lives in Brooklyn. I thought he was outside
the stereotyped Marine mold but, having just finished "Flags
of Our Fathers", I've come to realize he is probably just
like every other Marine who has survived combat: kind to a fault,
willing to spend his last nickel to help even total strangers in
need, gentle beyond belief and absolutely principled. I have no
other information on him than this. Anyone know him? If so, would
you be so kind as to share your memories/ I, and his daughter, my
wife, would appreciate that.
