    I was also in Chu Lai in 1969 in the Com/Nav shop. I got into the country around Feb. of 1969, and was there until we were transferred to Japan. I also have a copy of the Falcon cruise book. Are you the Sgt. Walter J. Pemberton that I remember. I have had my book all this time, and for the 1st time, I sat down and read through it. And I took the time to look at all the pics and see who I remembered. Actually quite a few.
    Have you had any contacts with any one else from that time in Nam ?
    Hope to hear from you.

    Hi Guy
    I looked you up in the book and You are siting next to me on the sand bags.
    There are several others who have posted on this page.
    I wish I had started looking sooner because a reunion was held last year.
    I was transfer out to VMFA-315 when 334 went to Japan.
    My e-mail address is wlpemb@tx.rr.com By the way the "J." was really an "L."

    Hi Pete.
    I looked you up in the cruse book and I remember you. I worked in Com/Nav but helped with the bombs sometimes. You know anything about Jerry Wasick, Bob Caldwell or Ray Turner? I hung around with them some what.
    So long for now.

    I ran across a message on the Leatherneck link about Cpl. John
    Vickers. I did not know your dad, but when I looked up his picture in
    "The Falcon" cruise book I recognize him. From the book, it looks like
    he was in hydraulics...correct ? I'm not sure if you have seen the book
    I am talking about, with his picture in. If you do not have it, I
    would gladly scan his picture and e-mail it to you. It is a picture of
    him by himself with a big smile on his face ! Just having a great time
    in Nam.
    Just get back with me if you would like a copy of the picture.
