Biography coming soon.
Charles was my father-in-law and was a sergeant in the Marines first battalion 24th Marines and served on Saipan Tinian, ro numur and Iwo Jima. Does anybody remember him? He would never tell me about his combat experience during those campaign. He died over 20 years ago I eulogized him. He worked in the oil fields of Santa Fe Springs California. A very proud man does anybody remember him?
Hello,
I conducting research on Whittier High School grads and came across this page. Do you happen to have a picture of Charles? None exist in our Whittier Year Books.
Thank you,
John
