Description

Robert Halle served in the Marine Corps during the Korean War. Robert and Bruce both served in Korea. Robert enlisted in the Marine Reserves at the age of seventeen, and was called to active duty during his junior year of high school. He trained in California. He served for seven months, and was wounded twice. One of these wounds was a minor shrapnel wound, the other was a significant wound on the left side of his head. Robert discusses at length his experience at Hill 749, praises his friend and section leader Dick Blassingame, and discusses his lifelong post-war career in education.
