160. MARTINEZ, Luther

 

So far In WWII I found two Luther Martinez's, one was in the 77th Infantry Division Co I 306th Infantry, and the other in the 103rd Infantry Division, he could be one of them, or they could be one and the same, here with him being first in the 77th Div and then transferred out and over to the 103rd Div at one point. No other info found.

A Photo Update for Martinez, Antonio C. could only get that he was in the 7th Inf Div in WWII, on Okinawa, (32nd Inf? He's wearing the DIs for the 32nd) no other info on Korea or Vietnam.

Have a few thing on McCoid.

 

A lot of his stuff was on Ebay at one point, even a topic was started on this.

I took the liberty of copying the items that were there for posterity.

McDade had a long career, but unfortunately he's best remembered as the CO of the 2nd Battalion 7th Cavalry 1st Cavalry Division during the debacle at the Battle of LZ Albany in November 1965.
