"Don't come outside to the car, and don't cry, mother," Pedro remarked as he was about to leave Watsonville for the last time, "I want to remember you in your own living room like this."
Pedro Ortiz was born in Fresno County, California, on January 31, 1946, to Raymond and Gloria Ortiz. Over the next several years the couple lived in several communities before divorcing. In addition to Pedro, the Ortiz family consisted of sons Frank and Reynaldo. Later Gloria remarried and brothers Richard and Manuel and sisters Jenny and Lupe Platero were added to Pedro's family.
During the mid-1950s, Pedro was sent to live with his grandparents in the Pajaro Valley where he attended the Pajaro Elementary School for two years.
In the late 1950s Ortiz moved to Calexico where he completed his elementary school education. A final move took him north to Selma, California, where he graduated from Selma High School in 1964.
After spending a year at Reedley College, Ortiz enlisted in the US Army in 1966 and was sent to Fort Ord, California, for basic training. He was then ordered to Fort Campbell, Kentucky, where he received instruction as a helicopter gunner. In December 1966 Ortiz returned to Watsonville to visit his mother for the last time. He also shared with her his dream of finishing college, becoming a social worker and of making Watsonville his home.
When Pedro Ortiz arrived in Vietnam on January 14, 1967, he was assigned to the 335th Assault Helicopter Company serving in the Saigon area. On May 1, 1967, Pedro was involved in a crash that took his life.
“The 335th Assault Helicopter Company was tasked with providing airlift for a combat assault being conducted by the 9th Infantry Division operating out of Bear Cat base. Nine aircraft departed Bien Hoa, climbed to 1500 feet, and proceeded toward Bear Cat in a left-staggered trail formation. While enroute the pilot of the #3 aircraft noted that #2 was in very close formation with the lead aircraft and did not appear to be adjusting his position appropriately when lead maneuvered. When lead began a gentle right turn his blade tips struck those of the #2 aircraft. Both aircraft broke up in flight. Eight men died as a result of the mid-air collision.”
The body of Pedro Ortiz was returned to Selma, where his father and his two Vietnam veteran brothers were living, for final burial. Specialist Fourth Class Ortiz later was posthumously awarded the Purple Heart and Air Medal with five Oakleaf clusters.

Classmate Donald Hansen remembered Larry as someone who "had a smile that would light up any overcast day in Monterey Bay."
Lawrence Rudin Dodd was born on April 2, 1946, in Watsonville to Mr. and Mrs. Harold Dodd. Larry and his sisters Catherine, Sherrie and Carrie grew up in Aromas, California, and attended local Pajaro Valley schools. In 1960 Dodd enrolled in Watsonville High School and remained there for the next four years. During that period, he played on the football team and was remembered by his friends as being a good-natured individual who was known for truthfulness and dependability. After graduating from high school in 1964, he enrolled in nearby Cabrillo College and followed a course of study to prepare him for the School of Forestry at the University of California at Davis. In December 1965 Larry married Jean Fowler.
Larry Dodd was drafted into the US Army in January 1966 and the following February was sent to Fort Lewis, Washington, to train as an infantryman. After completing basic and advanced individual training, he was assigned to Company C, 3rd Battalion, 8th Infantry Regiment of the 4th Infantry Division preparing for departure to Vietnam. In September 1966, Larry said goodbye to his wife and family for the last time.
Upon arrival in Vietnam Larry's company was deployed to the central highland area where they conducted patrols in search of Viet Cong and North Vietnamese units. His spirits were particularly high on May 26, 1967, as he began the day's patrol. Dodd had just heard that his wife had given birth to their daughter Ladean. He expected to join them in three more months when he rotated home. As Company C was moving along a jungle trail near the Cambodian border at Plei Doc in the central highlands it became strung out and was ambushed by North Vietnamese troops. Larry's company commander was the first to be killed in the fire-fight and Specialist Fourth Class Lawrence Rudin Dodd soon joined him.
The body of Larry Dodd, Watsonville's first Vietnam War combat casualty, was recovered and returned home for a funeral and internment in the Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno.
At a later ceremony at Fort Ord Larry's widow, Jean, received the Bronze Star and Purple Heart that were awarded to him posthumously.

Welton taught Santa Cruz High School cadets how to be soldiers and then set the example.
Welton Roger King was born on September 12, 1924, in Amity, Arkansas, to Mr. and Mrs. C. F. King. The King family also consisted of a younger brother Ronald [who also appears on this honor roll] and his sisters Jo Ann and Jane. The family later moved to the California central valley community of Merced. Welton is believed to have graduated from Merced High School prior to the family's move to Santa Cruz. While living in Santa Cruz, he attended San Jose State College and became an ROTC cadet.
After serving in World War II, King returned to Santa Cruz and during the years 1947-1948, taught band and ROTC at Santa Cruz High School. Desiring a career in the US Air Force, Welton re-entered the armed forces during the Korean War and continued to serve throughout the Cold War era. During this period, Welton married Mary Lou and had two sons, Ronald and Douglas, along with a daughter Kathy.
By the time of the Vietnam War, Welton had risen to the rank of Lt. Colonel and continued to fly. The type of aircraft or the Air Wing to which he was assigned has not been identified; however, B29, B52 bombers and other aircraft were being flown out of Okinawa in 1967. On June 1, 1967, while taking off on a mission, Lt. Colonel Welton R. King's aircraft crashed at Kadena AFB on Okinawa. His remains were recovered and returned to California for burial in the Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno, California.

Lt. St. George was being prepared to "slay the Soviet dragon" when his twentieth-century steed went down.
Richard L. St. George was born September 9, 1940, in Los Angeles County, California, to Mr. and Mrs. Reginald St. George. In 1954 Richard, along with his brother James and sister Judy, accompanied his parents in the family move to Watsonville. Reginald obtained employment at the Watsonville Press and moved his family into a home on Amesti Road half way between Watsonville and Corralitos. During their Pajaro Valley residence, the St. George family was active in All Saints Episcopal Church where young Richard served as an acolyte (altar boy). After completing grammar school, he entered Watsonville High School and graduated about 1958. During the following three years, St. George completed college programs at Cabrillo and Hartnell Colleges.
In 1963 St. George joined the US Air Force and entered an officer-training program to qualify as a navigator. At the completion of the program he was commissioned a second lieutenant and assigned to the 72nd Wing. While serving in that unit, he received further training as an electronic warfare officer, qualifying him to arm nuclear warheads aboard intercontinental bombers. Throughout his tour of service, St. George flew countless "fail safe" missions over the globe in the event of the need for a nuclear retaliation against the Soviet Union.
On July 5, 1967, while awaiting his promotion to Captain, St. George's plane departed from Ramey AFB in Puerto Rico on a routine training mission. In flight, the aircraft developed mechanical problems over the north coast of the island that the pilot was unable to correct and the B- 52 plunged into the sea. Three of the crewmen were able to parachute to safety; however, First Lieutenant Richard St. George and the remainder of the crew sank to the bottom of the sea with the plane. His body was never recovered.
A memorial service with an air force honor guard was conducted at his family church in Watsonville. A headstone in his remembrance was installed in Pajaro Valley Memorial Park.

Two guerrillas ended Frank Rose's Vietnam experience and his life.
Frank James Rose Jr. was born in Hayward, California, on August 6, 1941, to Mr. and Mrs. Frank James Rose. While he was still an infant, his family relocated to Watsonville where his maternal grandmother was living. Later, before Frank's parents divorced, several siblings joined him in the Rose household. Others were later added when his mother married William Serpa of Watsonville. Rose attended local schools and in 1955 entered Watsonville High School. He enjoyed renovating old cars, which led him into employment as a spray painter at a local paint and body shop. Prior to the Vietnam War, Frank married Claudia Jean, who also lived in the Pajaro Valley.
Frank Rose was drafted into the US Army on October 20, 1966, and sent to Fort Lewis, Washington, for basic and advanced individual training. On April 16, 1967, he was deployed to Vietnam where he joined HQ Company, 35th Engineer Battalion that served as a combat engineer unit. During his tour in Vietnam, Frank's company was engaged in highway maintenance. His unit also provided support for the 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) unit in the Bong Son plains during the Loa valley operations.
On July 12, 1967, while working in his company compound area, Specialist Fourth Class Frank James Rose Jr. was shot and killed by two Vietnamese youths, said to be members of a Viet Cong guerilla unit. His body was returned to Watsonville and after a funeral at Valley Catholic Church, was interred in the adjoining cemetery.

"It broke my heart to see him climb into that airplane," Norm's wife said after seeing him off for the last time.
Norman Schmidt was born on July 7, 1926, in Los Angeles County, California, to Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Schmidt, and was raised in the small community of Ben Lomond in Santa Cruz County. During the late 1930s, he attended local elementary schools and in 1944 graduated from Boulder Creek High School. Following high school, he enrolled in nearby San Jose State College where he graduated about 1948.
Norman Schmidt entered the US Air Force about 1948 and following training, earned his wings. In the early 1950s Lt. Schmidt completed pilot training at Luke Field, Arizona, and was assigned to a fighter squadron in Korea. During the Korean War, he flew a number of combat missions and on one occasion his plane was shot down.
When the Vietnam War began, Schmidt had risen to the rank of Lt. Colonel and was testing jet fighters at George Air Force Base in Mojave, California. In July 1966, he received orders assigning him to the 435th Tactical Fighter Squadron of the 8th Tactical Fighter Wing, which was flying F105D fighters out of Ubon Air Base, Thailand.
In an article appearing in the Washington Post issue of March 26, 2005, Schmidt's daughter, Janet Schmidt Zupan, described her father's last mission, captivity and death.
“On Sept. 1, 1966, his F-104 was hit by flak during a mission, and the plane went down. My dad bailed out, drifting toward his last 364 living days, days that separated him so utterly from his life as a son, husband, father and career test pilot. In his final months he was deemed a war criminal, beyond our desperate love and worry, beyond the protection of the country he served, and excluded from the regard for human safety, dignity and life inherent in the articles of the Geneva Conventions.
In a 1974 audiotape, Cmdr. Robert Shumaker shared recollections of my dad. They were in a nine-foot-square cell with two other POWs in the Little Vegas section of the Hanoi Hilton in the summer of 1967. It was a harrowing period for the prisoners, in the wake of a communications purge. Shumaker described an incident on August 21:
"After Norm had finished washing he was peeking out (a) crack and trying to get a look at some of the other prisoners. Wouldn't you know it, a guard caught him." For this offense, my dad's legs were locked in stocks attached to his bed. Ten days passed before guards released him from this confinement and took him away for interrogation. He was never seen again. Shumaker concluded that "(Norm) was subjected to torture and succumbed in the process." Other prisoners, in cells down the hall from the interrogation room, reported hearing the "sounds of torture ... a loud scuffle and then silence." My father's remains were disinterred from the Ba Huyen Cemetery in Hanoi in 1974 and returned to us.”
The location of Norman Schmidt's grave has not been identified.

Four months after the death of their son Welton, the King family received another jolt.
Ronald Runyan King was born on November 1, 1926 , in Amity, Arkansas, to Mr. and Mrs. C. F. King. The King family consisted of another son, Welton (who was also among the county's war dead) and daughters Jo Ann and Jane. The family later moved to the California central valley community of Merced, where Ronald attended local schools.
Following graduation from Merced High School in 1945, Ronald King entered the US Army and served until the conclusion of World War II. After he was discharged, he returned to his parent's home in Santa Cruz, California, and enrolled in nearby San Jose State College.
After graduating from college, about 1950, King entered the US Air Force and was commissioned a second lieutenant. Following the Korean War, he attended the Air Force Command and Staff College at Maxwell Air Base, Alabama, and then served in England for the next three years. Upon his return to the United States, King completed an advanced training program at McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas, and then received orders to Southeast Asia.
After Major King departed for Thailand in 1967, his wife Margaret and their four sons John, Richard, William and Robert moved into a home in San Jose, California. Upon his arrival at the Takhli Royal Thai Air Base, King was assigned to the 333rd Tactical Fighter Squadron of the 355th Tactical Fighter Wing.
On October 3, 1967, Ronald King had just completed a reconnaissance mission to North Vietnam aboard his F105D fighter when he ran out of fuel over the Gulf of Tonkin. He was reported to have ejected from the aircraft, parachuted into heavy seas and drowned by waves that reached twenty feet in height. His body was never recovered. Major Ronald Runyan King was posthumously promoted to Lt. Colonel and a memorial service in his honor was conducted at the Golden Gate National Cemetery at San Bruno on October 8, 1967.

Private Melesso Garcia shared misgivings with his comrades about going into combat on October 17, 1967.
Melesso Garcia listed Santa Cruz County as his residence; however, the location of his birth, family members and his life in the community have not been established. He was born on October 18, 1946, and while some portion of his education may have taken place in Watsonville, Watsonville High School did not include him among their students who died in Vietnam.
Garcia enlisted in the regular US Army in the fall of 1966 and received training at Fort Lewis, Washington. He was assigned to Company D, 2nd Battalion (Black Lion Battalion) of the 28th Infantry Regiment and on July 16, 1967, began his Vietnam tour.
On October 17, 1967, Garcia's company was in a jungle area near Ong Thanh (about fifty miles from Saigon) when they were ambushed by approximately 1200 Viet Cong troops. The two US companies (A&D), totaling about 120 men, were pinned down as snipers opened fire from all directions. Pulitzer Prize winning author David Maraniss, in his book They Marched into Sunlight: War and Peace Vietnam and America, October 1967, detailed the end of the life of Private First Class Melesso Garcia.
”To his left [SP4] Troyer saw Melesso Garcia behind a log, gesturing. It seems that Garcia wanted to say something. He turned on his side and pushed his body up with one hand and at that moment was shot. A look came over his face that Troyer had not seen before. For two days Garcia had been haunted by premonitions that he should not be out there, and now the realization of his foreboding registered on his face.”
Melesso Garcia died one day short of his twenty-first birthday. His remains were recovered and returned to Houston, Texas, where they were buried in the Houston National Cemetery.

David De Lapena remembered how his friend Louie "always stuck up for the underdog."
Louis Charles Miller was born in Watsonville, California, on December 24, 1948. His parents later divorced and his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Burnett, who lived in nearby Corralitos, raised him. Louis received his primary school education at Corralitos Elementary School. One childhood friend reminisced of their "playing in the woods down by the creek and shooting [basketball] hoops at the school." Louis Miller enrolled at Watsonville High School in September 1963, where he was remembered as an average student who was not involved in many extra-curricular activities. Miller appears to have been an outdoors kind of guy who enjoyed activities such as hunting.
High school education came to an end for Louis Miller in January 1967, when at the age of seventeen, he left school to join the US Army. After completing basic training at Fort Ord, California, he was sent to Fort Benning, Georgia, for advanced infantry and paratrooper training. Private Miller was then assigned to B Company, 503rd Regiment of the 173rd Airborne Infantry Division.
On July 2, 1967, Louis Miller arrived in Vietnam. While in "Nam," he served at An Khe, Plieku, and Landing Zone English, among other locations. In September 1967, he was involved in an undisclosed firefight, was wounded and awarded the Purple Heart.
Increased activity by the North Vietnamese army began occurring in the central highlands near Kontum in November and Company B was sent to the area in what was known as Operation MacArthur or the Battle of Dak To.
“To expand the coverage of supporting artillery fires, the 4th Battalion of the 173rd was ordered to occupy Hill 823, south of Ben Het, for the construction of Fire Support Base 15. Since the rest of the battalion's companies were already deployed elsewhere, the 120 men of Bravo Company would combat assault onto the hilltop by helicopter alone. After several attempts to denude the hilltop with air strikes and artillery fire, Bravo Company landed unopposed that afternoon, but the hill was not unoccupied. 15 minutes later, contact was made with the North Vietnamese. The battle that ensued raged at close quarters until early the following morning when elements of the 66th PAVN Regiment withdrew, leaving behind more than 100 bodies. Nine Americans of Bravo Company, 4/503 also lay dead and another 28 were wounded.”
Included among the names of those nine Americans of Bravo Company killed on November 6, 1967, was that of Louis Charles Miller. His body was recovered and returned to Watsonville for burial in Pajaro Valley Memorial Park.

Jack McKinnon's life in Santa Cruz County, California, remains a mystery. He was born on March 9, 1948, in Santa Cruz; however no record of his family, formative years or life in the county has been located.
During the early part of 1967, McKinnon was apparently living in Santa Cruz County and was drafted into the US Army. As an entering recruit he would likely have spent the eight-week basic training course at Fort Ord, California, or Fort Lewis, Washington, with an additional five weeks of advanced individual training to prepare him as an infantryman.
Private McKinnon arrived in Vietnam on April 13, 1967, and joined Company D, 4th Battalion of the 31st Infantry Regiment. That unit was in the process of moving from Tay Ninh to Chu Lai on the South China Sea to participate in Operation Oregon, which was a sweep into Binh Son Province.
About 1967 McKinnon was promoted to specialist fourth class and likely participated in additional combat operations in Quang Ngai, Chu Lai, and Que Son Valley. It was probably at one of these locations that Specialist Fourth Class Jack Wiley McKinnon Jr. was killed in action on January 3, 1968, while attempting to prevent Viet Cong guerillas and the North Vietnamese Army from capturing the coastal lowlands.
His body was recovered, returned to California and was interred in the Golden Gate National Cemetery.
