I personally never knew Gary, I am too young. Upon researching my family I was given this information. Although I did not know him, he would have been my cousin, and obviously is an American hero.

I would like to hear from anyone who served with my little brother Gary Hall. This is his older brother, Ron, I also served a tour in Vietnam.
From his brother, 28 Feb 2007 This is just to say that I miss Gary every day of my life. I also served in Vietnam before him so I know what he had to deal with. I wish that he never had to do me one better but he did. You see, he gave his life for his country and I didn't, so he really outdid me this time. That is the way it is and I have to live with it. I MISS HIM SO MUCH. May we be together again up yonder.

The NVA troops were well dug in and resisted with enthusiasm. When the fighting ended, the NVA had been expelled, leaving 42 dead and 7 prisoners behind - but eight Marines and one sailor were dead:
