Marine Corps Interrogator Transl
Mark Conroy
In 1974, I latterly moved to 0251 after two Vietnam tours and a
training period with USN dive commands.
I was a senior 0331/usn5327 on the list for SSgt. I served with 19th ITT
and in 75 went to Korean Lang Crs,
In 75 I went to IPW at Ft. Huachuca and in 76 to 0231 Course at NTC
Coronado.
In 77 I went to Arabic Lang Course and trans to 2d MarDiv. I was the team
chief of the 14th ITT in Beirut,
which, for some reason, you have all forgotten. After Beirut , because
of CWO-4 Ed Farah,
I was sent to 4th MarDiv as the ITT Coordinator. 30-35th ITTs, after which
I had a huge fight with INTM
and latterly moved back to 0369 but kept my clearance status. When I
retired in Oct 1991 I held an SBI/SI. My
biggest problem was Rick Wible and Bill Mayne. Ask Howie Fielding and
Gunny George Buss.
I was the last combat field interrogator with an 0251 to perform a field
interrogation and as an 0302
at Umm Hujuul I performed duties as an 0251. I held 0251/0291 and 0250-0205
