THE WALL OF FACES

Charles is buried at Barrancas Nat Cem.

Read the whole story…

The account in which this Marine lost his life is remarkable in its intensity. Go to the library (out of print book) and get “Operation Buffalo: The USMC Fight for the DMZ” by Keith Nolan.

Although we never met personally, I want to thank you Charles Alan Ballauf, for your courageous and valiant service, faithful contribution, and most holy sacrifice, given to this great country of ours!

Your Spirit is alive--and strong, therefore, you shall never be forgotten, nor has your death been in vain!

Again, thank you Doc Ballauf, for a job well done!

FAIR WINDS, AND ETERNAL PEACE MY FRIEND'

I did not know you or your family, however; I believe you were with my father that day and I hope your together in heaven. May you rest in peace, and may God go with your family.
Bob Dambeck II

I remember you in the pay line near me at Corps School in San Diego because our last names started with a "B". You were a happy person then. I was saddened that we lost you over there where we both served. My prayers are have been for you since your death.

Your friend
