I am a Junior at Westlake High School in Austin, Texas. In my English class, we have been assigned a soldier from the Vietnam War, mine being Captain Leon Gordon Chadwick III. The project includes a written biography along with an electronic media presentation. The project will then be posted onto the school website for public access. My goal is to make my presentation not just a school project but into a memorial in honor of Captain Chadwick. I was hoping to find someone who either served with him or simply knew him that could provide me with more information. I have spoken to many of his friends from high school and college who have provided me with information from his life before the military so I was hoping to learn more about his life in the Marines. Anything at all would be very helpful in creating what I hope to be a tribute to Gordon's life.
