Thank you, Dick and Jeff!

It’s so nice to have this rich history that you all capture and share.

My Grandfather was an advisor on the film “They Were Expendable.” I believe there were 2 or 3 Active duty advisors. In fact there is a reference to him in the film by name “Snuffy.”

Thank you for reposting the photos. I really appreciate it!

Cheers,

Vera

I have one from my Dad, GM1C PT224. But I am somewhat technology challenged. It keeps telling me file is too big. I can send to a email or phone ?

Bob.
Send an email to Dick Washicheck the Forum administrator with the large file photo of the RON16 Logo emblem I know a lot of us would like to see it. He can do magic and post it here on the forum.

Thanks for sharing the photos Bob, that is an awesome remembrance of your Father. And thanks Dick for helping him post it.

That is very cool Vera, needless to say TWE is pretty much our favorite movie around here! Next time I watch it I'll keep an eye on the credits for your Grandfather's name.
