TRIBUTE TO THE FAMILY OF

REMEMBEREDby Richard BakerE-Mail will be forwarded by the Webmaster@VirtualWall.org |
I was a Corpsman at MACS-4 at the time LT Ross was hit. I remember getting the call at sick bay that there was wounded at the staff hooches. It was a long time ago so some things are not real clear but I do remember Lt Ross was killed needlessly. As I remember Lt Ross was heck of a nice officer who worked well with the enlisted Marines. He never pushed his rank on his fellow Marines and seemed to get along with everyone. He was a officer and a gentleman. My name is Steve Kimpson. I was a 3rd class Corpsman with Bravo Battery, 1st LAAM and with MACS-4. My prayers are with Lt Ross's family.
