Last Known Activity Bill Goss bill.goss@apollosecurity.com great friend and fellow Marine 7 Rowe Street Stoneham MA 022180 USA J.J. and I became great friends when we met at Camp Pendleton on our way to the Nam. We partied together in our spare time and did all the typical things together that young Marines do prior to going to war.We shipped out to Okinawa together and wound up being assigned to the same unit(1/7)in Nam. J.J.was a great man, a great Marine, and a great friend. I will always miss his smile,his sense of humor, and our exchange of dares. There is not a day that goes by without my thinking of J.J. He keeps me young thinking of our adventures together. Semper Fi, Bill Goss
