Cpl John R. Burke and LCpl Mitch Stupar made the ultimate sacrifice on the night of June 6, 1967. In doing so, they saved the lives of LCpl Thomas Balk and LCpl Carter, a fellow Scout/Sniper team. These two men told me had it not been for Cpl Burke and LCpl Stupar they too would have been killed in action on Hill 950. LCpl Balk and LCpl Carter were medevaced out of Khe Sanh on June 7, 1967, due to their wounds. Cpl John R. Burke and LCpl Mitch Stupar worked as a team and died as a team. +++ REST IN PEACE, MY BROTHERS +++ SEMPER FI! +++

Rest well, my brother. Don't know why some were spared and others killed but all that will be answered in the afterlife.
Semper Fi! |
