Bullets and Bandages: A DMZ Story - Vietnam 1967
Staff Sergeant Mike Marowski, USMC and Hospitalman First Class Terry King, USN were about as different as two people could be, but they had a lot in common. Both of them were assigned to the 3rd Marine Division in Vietnam. Both of them humped with the grunts, ate the same chow, suffered the same hardships, and shared the same risks. Marowski led marines into harm€s way and King kept them alive when there was more harm than way. They were also friends and family. Terry King was married to Marowski€s kid sister.
In July of 1967, Marowski was made commander of First Platoon, Delta Company, 1/9 at Con Thien, and Terry King became senior squid for Charlie Company, 1/9 at Dong Ha. Both King and Marowski were experienced combat veterans, confident in their own abilities, but confidence and skill weren€t always enough on the DMZ. The 1/9 was about to be tested in ways few Marine Battalions have ever been tested, in ways few marines or corpsmen were ever tested.
