Mr. Babbin,
Sir, as a fellow Marine I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the USMC in Korea. Because of you and your fellow Marines standing up to Communism back then, millions of South Koreans were able to live in freedom and prosperity and make their country one of the most industrius of the Free World. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
