WAHOOMAN Posted August 28, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 28, 2021 I acquired this grouping a few weeks ago. SGT Rayford W. Addington was a USMC veteran. The grouping includes a his Zippo lighter with an inscription, his USMC chevrons and an autograph copy of West Dickens Avenue A Marine at Khe Sanh. Based on information derived from the Zippo website, I believe the Zippo lighter is dated 1967. He was at Khe Sanh during the 77 day siege in 1967-1968. During my research I found Addington's photo on The Warriors of Hill 881S website (www.hmm-364.org) He is listed as SGT -Perimeter Sector, NCOIC, I/3/26.
