Headquarters U.S. Marine Corps

My Dear Admiral: 23 February 1943

I wish to express at this time my appreciation for the work done by the
Sixth Naval Construction Battalion at Guadalcanal. They were a spendid body
of workmen who approached and successfully performed an unsusal variety of
tasks. Each of those tasks was intimately connected with the preparation of
and maintenance of Guadalcanal as a a base. The members of the Battalion
with courage and willingness undertook construction work of all types; and
when the demand arose, they cheerfully turned to other tasks where hands
were needed. During one period the pressure of enemy forces against us was
so great that troops could not be spared to handle stores on the beaches.
Fighting had to go on and ships had to be unloaded. Construction workers
voluntarily took over that work and performed it exceedingly well.
In addition to commenting upon the performance of duty the
"Seabees", I wish to commend the wisdom that foresaw the need for
such an organization. In the war in the Pacific in seizing one base after
another, few of us realized the great amount of construction which would be
necessary. Need for this arises almost immediately after the initial
landing, and becomes greater as the area seized is developed into a real
base. I do not know how we would have gotten along without the
"Seabees", and trust that they will be participants in every
future operation in even larger numbers than at Guadalcanal.

Very Sincerely Yours,
A.A. Vandegrift
Major General, USMC.

E-mail: kojacnine@yahoo.com		 To all the Brothers and Yes that includes you too Teet. Don't know about
you guys but seeing your names and now recieving e-mail and phone calls
from the Brothers in History. WOW I know I couldn't stop smiling. Even when
the memories started rushing in. Could see every single one of you
Brothers. What a thrill. Knowing that after all of these years we can sit
index.html and know how we are now instead of wondering. I'm glad Teet contacted
me. See Teet some of us did wear off on you. LOL Really It is great to
hear from you guys. Would like to hear from more.
"Coke" Cushman, Weber, Knauer, Webb, Vargus, Chase

hold the tradition of the Nads from yesteryears. God Bless You fellas.
