This entry was prepared in anticipation of the Memorial Service at Mt. Soledad Cross, San Diego Reunion, October 1. Lt Gatlin J. Howell Jerry was 3. OCS with the 1st Platoon of Bravo Company. He had served an enlistment in the Marine Corps before going to College under the GI Bill. In Basic School, Jerry was assigned to 3rd Platoon of Delta Company. Jerry was the platoon commander MOS 0. Platoon, Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 9th Marines for 1. Intelligence Shop S 2 on May 2. Basic School Classmate, 1st Lt Steve Snyder. He had assumed command of the Bravo 3 in late July 1. Liberty Road, approximately 3 kilometers south of Dai Loc and 1 kilometer north of the Liberty Road Ferry Crossing on the Song Thu Bon. September to go through an SLF rotation. Refitting and training occurred on Okinawa. Additional training took place at Subic Bay in the Philippines in preparation for an early January Operation Deckhouse V in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam. After changing shipping, 19 return to Vietnam in early February 1. At this point, Bravo Company was detached and sent to Khe Sanh to provide security for the Combat Base for the months of February, March and April. After a brief assignment to Camp Carroll in early May, Bravo Company rejoined it parent Battalion, 19. Jerry continued as the Bravo 3 platoon commander through the month of May. On May 2. 8th, Jerry took over the 19 Battalion Intelligence Officer billet S 2 from Classmate, 1st Lt Stephen M. Snyder. On July 2nd, while serving as the S 2, Jerry left the 19 command bunker at Con Thien to accompany his Basic School platoon commander, Captain Mac Radcliffe in rescuing as many of the survivors of the Bravo Company ambush at the Marketplace as possible. Jerrys former platoon had been on point and had accordingly suffered the most severe casualties in the close fighting. Jerrys loyalty to his platoon and love for his men motivated him to leave the relative security of the Command Bunker and accompany the relief column in the WIA recovery effort. Several acts of valor are described in the Navy Cross citation which detail Jerrys courageous actions and commitment in recovering the Bravo 3 wounded. Five days later, Jerry was back at his desk in the Combat Operation Center at Con Thien YD 1. Battalion Intelligence matters, when at 1. The round virtually exploded where Jerrys S 2 desk was located. Jerrys body had fragmentation wounds to the back and right knee. The wounds suggested that he was not at his desk at the moment of impact, but rather some distance from the site facing further into the bunker. Jerry died instantaneously along with 1. Marines in this incident in Quang Tri Province during Operation Buffalo. The single artillery shell also wounded 2. Marines in the 19 CP. Operation Buffalo had also taken the life of Classmate 1st Lt Wayne Hayes one day earlier. Wayne and Jerry had been in the same Basic School Company, Wayne in platoon D 2, while Jerry was in D 3. Jerry was married and had one child prior to departing for Vietnam. As his wife, Nancy, had visited him during the refitting and training cycle on Okinawa, she became pregnant with their second child, who was born after Jerry death. Jerry is buried in the San Francisco National Cemetery on the beautiful grounds of the Presidio. He is interred in Plot E East 5. A. A picture of his headstone is displayed below Prepared by Dave Mellon. REMEMBERANCEJanuary 2. Gatlin Jerryl Jerry Howell. Bravo 3 Actual. July 1. May 1. 96. 7Bravo Company. Battalion, 9th Marines. Battalion S 2 Intelligence Officer June 1. July 1. 96. 7Foreword I am pulling together this Remembrance of Jerry Howell because he was my friend and I want to honor his memory as well as document his service to our great country. It is long overdue. Additionally, I have lost track of his survivors and hope that this might facilitate reconnecting. In retirement, I have the time to address some of these obligations, which were neglected earlier. I was fortunate to serve in the same rifle company with Jerry in Vietnam First Battalion, Ninth Marine Regiment, Third Marine Division, Fleet Marine Force, Pacific from mid July 1. I was evacuated on February 2. Jerry served as a platoon commander with Bravo Company for 1. Battalion staff, as the S 2. I will attempt to describe Jerrys entire tour in Vietnam, which is also a partial chronology of the combat history of Bravo Company and his platoon, Bravo 3, for the period. As I was not there for his final 4 and months of Jerrys service in Vietnam, I have relied on information available in the 19 Command Chronologies, a couple of authors Edward F. Murphy The Hill Fights The First Battle of Khe Sanh and Keith William Nolan Operation Buffalo and some friends who served with Jerry and I in 19, specifically, a Basic School Classmate, Stephen M. Snyder, who was the Delta 2 Actual, then Battalion S 2 Delta 1 Actual, Delta XO and then Delta CO, William F. Delaney, who was the XO of Bravo Company, and Melvin L. Thompson, who was Bravo 2 Actual, XO of H S Co and finally CO of H S Company. Background My recollections are undoubtedly diminished by the 4. Jerry died and the writing of this Remembrance. There are many things I would have asked back then, if I had known he would be killed, but at the time, I thought that we would always be friends and some of those items of information would come out as we sat around later in life, enjoying a beer, recalling our youth and telling war stories. Some of this background information is a matter of fact, found in the written records of the war, while some are my recollections of the facts and the man. I take full responsibility for any errors of fact. I first met Jerry in Basic School. We were both assigned to platoon, D 3 in Basic Class 3 6. We graduated from the 3. Officer Candidate Course on December 1. Quantico in early January 1. Basic School. Our platoon commander was Captain Henry J. M. Mac Radcliffe. My recollection is that Jerry was of Native American extraction and was born and spent his early life in Oklahoma. I believe his family moved to California during his youth. Jerry was born in 1. High School in 1. The point here is that he was too young to have served in Korea. It was a war that he missed. I believe he joined the Marine Corp following High School and did a four year hitch. He would have gotten out in. He undoubtedly went to college on the GI bill.
