From Gary Miloglav
Steve was the best man at my wedding in 1970 after Vietnam. We lost touch with each other shortly after that. Using Ancestry.com I finally found out that he died in 2011 in Nevada. We joined the Marines together in 1965. He became a helicopter machine gunner, I loaded bombs on F4s. He went to Vietnam, I went to Japan and missed Vietnam by 1 day because of the USS Pueblo incident (I went on nuclear alert in Japan).

Thank you Gary for the news about Steve. Thank you for looking for him. I wonder how many of us served in Vietnam?
Gary Miloglav
Probably too many. I hope a lot survived.
