Trying to find my dads platoon number

[JacquelineH]

Good afternoon everyone. I am not sure if I am in the right place, but I am wondering how I would go about finding my dads platoon number. He passed away last yr from covid and I just received his...

It would help if this Marine had a name...

[JacquelineH]

I am sorry. His name was William Burdette VanCise. He was born on 10/31/41 and passed away 5/5/2020. Thank you

You can get his entire service record also, then I can assist you in possibly locating buddies of his.

Personnel records center. ..St Louis ....the exact address is easily available

I just moved the thread for you, after asking you first.
There will be more views here.

Thank you so much. I am just getting used to this forum. I appreciate all your help. It really means a lot to me. I just requested my dads entire service record too. Thank you again and have a great night

You're welcome. PM me with any questions. And when you get the service records the next step will be to do a one-site search for his buddies.

Dave, thanks for helping this young Lady. Now.....I have a request. I played poker with a few friends last night. I ended up losing my Azz, anyway you can help me find it, Brother?? I don't have any photos of it, but I did get it in 1947. I guess you would say it was a typical White Azz, you know, kinda fleshy, divided into halves with a big hole right in the center of it. It's pretty well worn out, as it has been through a lot Shet since 47. Any help would be appreciated Dave. But please hurry, as I'm constipated as hell........

She got her dad's service records and is all set, Billy.
