Dear Family,
As you probably know, we are now at Khe Sanh surrounded by 20,000 NVA troops so now they can’t get away….By the time they get enough artillary into the mountains around us I’ll be on my way home.
Your son,
George

Sgt. George W. Storz, from San Anselmo, California, assigned to H & S Company, 1st Battalion, 9th Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, was hit by shrapnel and mortally wounded at Khe Sanh on 8 March 1968, one month before he was scheduled to rotate home. He never got to meet his second son, who was born six weeks after his father was killed.
