Ernest Floyd Petty
Added by: mphandLCPL Ernest Floyd Petty on the USS Okinogan on the way to Vietnam. He, LCP Marvin Owens Stevens, and I were in the 7th Comm Bn, heading for Chu Lai, Vietnam. Ultimately, the three of us ended up at Dong Ha combat base, 6 miles from the DMZ, where Ernie and Marvin were killed by artillery and mortar fire. I am the one taking this picture.
Both were killed during an attack on their base.
