EO3 Glen Ludban in NMCB62 in Vietnam has a song written about him. Access my facebook for an address of Paula singing her heart out for her neighbor. Glen's "GOLD STAR" mother was very close to Paula. I hope NMCB62 honors EO3 Ludban ? Bet his shipmates loved their hours together in beer bars. Glen and I did that in 1964 Hicksville, Ohio. Glen and I were on the same Indiana football team in 1964, also. Our opponents ran Vic Hunter's end with DEFENSIVE TACKLE Ludban on the field. On the Virtual Wall, Glen has an address for his memorial page.

I was station with the Marine Barracks/Security force co. on DG from July 1987 - July 1988. I fell upon your web site, because I have seen that Agent Orange was used and stored there. I remember mingling with some of the Seabee's there a time or two. Just wanted to say HI.

Hi,
I'm trying to find a guy who was in MCB-62. We were in Nam in Phu Bai in '66 -'67. He was a lot older then me and was our hut mom. We were in 'A" company. I often wondered if he's still living. His name was "Pappy" Lemon. This is all I know about him except in '69 he was with MCB 53 in Danang.
I need some suggestions on how I could find some info on him.
Thanks,
John T. Byrum, Jr.
Chesapeake, Va.
