Are those his wings that he's wearing in the last couple pics you posted? Sorry if I missed it but do you what unit was his last?

[VE45]

Hi Blitzkrieg, the wings were his. One set of dress greens has the "Vth Marine Amphibious Corps" patch but I don't know if this was the last he was attached to. Regards, Jay

Killer group and great story too.

 

The New Caledonia jump certificate is amazing.

This is one of my most favorite grouping posted on this forum from its inception.

I haven't posted on the forums in a long while but I just received a few priceless things to add to my Uncle's grouping. My Cousin Jason (One of Cyrille's Sons) recently gave me a photo of my Uncle somewhere in the South Pacific. Not sure when it was taken or where he was. My Cousin Jill (One of Cyrille's Daughters) gave me his Bronze Star Citation for Valor.

Still  amazed by this group for a decade now and it just keeps getting better. Would like to see the USN crackerjacks when and if you are ever able.

 

Thank you for continuing to update this thread and grouping.

Incredible grouping!   Don't know how I missed this - thanks for bringing it up again or I might never have seen it.

You could search a life time, or maybe 2 life times and never find a better grouping. Being to a Relative just makes it icing on the cake. Great grouping. Thanks for sharing. Dave

And from your family no less.

My favorite photo is the pullover with jump wings.

I have never seen that before.

I have to agree, this is an amazing group you have. Thank you for sharing with us.
