Lance Corporal Dennis Leon Senz, Served with Company K, 3rd Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, Third Marine Amphibious Force.

50 years have passed. The pain of those divided times has not. Denny was older than I by two years. He was very quiet and strong, a gifted athlete. I remember him hitting a home run over the right field wall on the Glendale Avenue field and going to the prom with the sister of an old girlfriend. His father drove the bus to almost all of my athletic events. I have visited the wall many times and always find his name and wondered what could have been for him. I'm still filled with sadness when I remember him.

As a marine we share a common bond and a rich history he was the reason that I went into the MARINE CORPS Personally greatful to have known him he has been an inspiration to me and others Semper fi always faithful and always remembered MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT YOU HAVE EARNED
