Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Army Col. Walter Joseph Marm (Ret.), right, Medal of Honor recipient, shares memories of his service in the Vietnam War during the LBJ Presidential Library's Vietnam War Summit on Tuesday, April 26, 2016.

Marm participated in the 1965 Battle of Ia Drang, the first major battle involving U.S. troops in the Vietnam War—and the bloodiest. Fellow veterans of that battle who joined Marm for a panel discussion about the battle included Vince Cantu, who was a private in the Army's Seventh Cavalry; Army Col. Bruce P. Crandall (Ret.), Medal of Honor recipient, and Dr. Tone Johnson, Jr., Bronze Star recipient.

Joseph L. Galloway, a former war correspondent and the only civilian to receive a Bronze Star for valor during the Vietnam War, moderated the panel discussion. Galloway and Cantu are hometown friends from Refugio, Texas who crossed paths unexpectedly during the battle.
