I Will Always Remember You T.J. Hold Me A Place at THE GATE
Knew T.J. for nearly 2 years; trained as Engineers & Bulk Fuel Specialists, Camp Pendelton. He deployed to RVN, I was held back in "Baby Company" with all other 17 year olds until we turned 18. In Oct '66, T.J & I along with 52 other 1391's were transferred to 3rd MarDiv for duty as 0311's (Grunts). T.J. & I were assigned to 1st MP BN, Combined Arms Company, Foxtrot 2 as part of Gen Walts pacification program. T.J. was a devout Catholic, but also a hard charging Jarhead, always itching to take it to the enemy. He requested transfer to a line company, I rotated stateside after 18 months, didn't learn of his death, until I sent a letter to his parents home to keep in touch. His Mom wrote me back, and gently informed me of his passing. He was like the big brother I never had. I think of him often. SEMPER FI TOM, see you soon.
