Marine Corps Vietnam Tankers Historical Foundation proudly announces the
creation of the Foundation’s expanded web site.
It has been 6 years since the M.C.V.T.H.F. was incorporated as the
official historical archive for the USMC Vietnam Tankers Association

its members. The Board of Directors of the Foundation has for many years
been eager to have a more in-depth web site. Thanks to the
The USMC Vietnam Tankers Association

retain a close personnel relationship."

“We now have the ability to enhance the efforts of both
organizations without confusing the missions of either entity.”
“Our goal at the Foundation is to provide Marine Corps
Tankers the most professional and effective historical archive .”

on the site are less typical of most Marine Corps sites with muted
backgrounds and easy to read text.

with professional voice-overs that will be provided by David “Doc” Forsyth
who serves on the BoD. |
