Please post the following obituary on the Popasmoke website.

Byran Gallup was assigned to HMM-361 in country in 1967. "By" was truly
one of the "few good men." Many of our younger aviator members will
remember him from HT-8 and CNATRA in the period 1968-1970. He was also
a Series Commander at MCRD San Diego in the period 1964-1966.

"By" retired from the Corps in 1978 and settled in Conway, Arkansas.
