We recently lost my dad, John William Robertson Root, to cancer. He never talked much about being a US Marine, but we did find out that he had been a "Hard Core Marine" - one of Carlson's Raiders. I am looking for any friend, fellow Marine, or aquaintance that can recall any information or share some stories about my dad. Please e-mail me at RootGroup@AOL.com or write to me at David L. Root, 3360 Mirage Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80920-4042. Thanks, my sisters and brother and I would really appreciate knowing more about our dad. Dave Root
