I am the brother of Capt. Brooke Shadburne, usmc, vmo-6 Killed in Viet Nam.

As I write to you his death still hurts like it did when I was told -I was a Pol.Sci student in Plano,TX- (his Wife, and three kids- Hunter, Zane, and Cristina like in TX now in the Austin area.

If you have any info. about Brooke, and his last year their- any photos, and remembering -his comments, thoughts etc. please let me know!!
In his last letter he wrote me our mom - he suggested using a W.W.II battleship so less American lives could be lost--I took that letter and sent it out Sen.John Tower TX put in congressional record---the end result was the recommission of the USS New Jersey - so hope fully his life Did save lives-though not on that night he was killed-
