Agent Orange exposure is officially classified as a “presumptive” factor causing Parkinson’s. Hence Sonny’s concern about 1/1 Veterans.

Could anyone from 1/1 who has developed Parkinson’s get in touch with:

Does anyone remember Cpl. Simmons and Cpl Harper, they were both WIA on 9/20/66. I'm pretty sure both Marines were sent stateside.

My daddy, Donald (Don) Harland Beggs, served in the 1st Marine Division Vietnam in 1970. Hoping to find friends to share photos and memories. My dad is alive living in New Mexico.

Steven R. Alt served with Delta Company 1st Platoon from January to December 1966. Still trying to find or hear from Ron Howard. Also forgot his name, a very fine Black Marine who would carry a load of M79 rounds in a canvas bag while on patrol. We would yell out “ Old Times” when we saw each other. Last saw him while still in the Marines in Norfolk, VA. Last saw Ron at Camp Pendleton, CA, 1968, I was going back to Vietnam.

Military Title and Locati: Volunteer with vets.

Subject: Marvin Lee Rist

Message: Hello! I live out in the Denver area and recently started volunteering at the state veterans home. I visit with a vet named Marv Rist, who told me he did two tours in VN with Delta 1-1 in 1968 and 1969. He told me he was a squad leader in 4th platoon. He is looking for a fellow soldier named Robert Hodges who was from Brooklyn NY but I can’t find him. He also mentioned Robert Pruitt being KIA but I can’t find any mention of him either. Can you help?
