A Note from The Virtual Wall The 16 May fight for the fortified hamlet at Phu Dong was the first major engagement in Operation Allen Brook, aimed at clearing VC and NVA forces from Go Noi Island, formed by the confluence of the Ky Lam, Ba Ren, and Chiem Son Rivers. At Phu Dong, three companies of Marines assaulted dug-in North Vietnamese Army regulars from the newly-arrived 36th Regiment, 308th NVA Division. By days' end the NVA had been forced from Phu Dong, leaving more than 130 dead behind. In addition to 38 wounded, the Marines lost 25 men killed in action: From India 3/27 Marines PFC Vincent S Coles, Newark, NJ PFC Jack Henderson, Chicago, IL From Alpha 1/7 Marines 2nd Lt Paul F Cobb, Roanoke, VA (Navy Cross) Cpl Douglas E Foster, Bellbrook, OH LCpl James D Gross, Pittsburg, CA Pvt James L Hill, Ponchatoula, LA Cpl Jerry G Hollingsworth, Columbia, SC PFC Roger K Jones, Hampton, VA PFC Richard K Morrison, Silver Spring, MD LCpl William L Pate, Robertsdale, AL PFC Terry M Ward, Bicknell, IN HN Leroy W Poppema, Hospers, IA From Golf 2/7 Marines LCpl Marvin A Bullock, Elm City, NC HM3 Robert M Casey, Guttenberg, NJ (Navy Cross) Pvt Robert E Church, Lakehurst, NJ PFC Robert G Freeman, Fayetteville, NC Cpl Charles R Hendrix, Louisville, KY LCpl Michael E Johnson, Hickam AFB, HI Pvt William E Koehler, Newport News, VA PFC Ernest C McCrimmon, Raleigh, NC PFC Ormond M Miller, Gadsden, AL PFC Michael J Morris, Albuquerque, NM LCpl John D Ponder, High Ridge, MO PFC Samuel F Rolen, Idabel, OK PFC Bruce E Teague, Canoga Park, CA
