Personal Accounts

A new feature for our site, is this Personal Accounts section. We'll be featuring true personal accounts by Raiders of their experiences during and after the war.
 

The personal account of Roger Spaulding 4CP.

Here is the story of Debbie Draper and her exploration of her Raider Dad’s WWII experience - in her own words and with her own pictures.

Here is the story of a Native American Raider - Red Cloud. You can read his story, written by George Saqqal below. We thank George for allowing us to reproduce his excellent story here!

 

  • Our first Personal Account is written by author and friend, John R. McCormick. Better known us his Raider buddies as "Moe," he's the author of "The Right Kind of War," a novel of the Raiders in WW2. (Try amazon.com or b&n.com to find it.) Click Here for "Marine With An Iron Will."

Our second Personal Account is written  by Mel Heckt, and is a daily diary of his time overseas during WW2. We're presenting this historical document in 5 parts.

Our Third Personal account (and part of our 2nd Anniversary) is something different - it's by a new found friend, Peter Flahavin, who lives in Australia and has visited the battlefields of Guadalcanal many times. Below are links to his travel diary and many pictures

Thanks Peter for your interest and support!
