Summary

edit
Description
English: "‘You Got to Prime the Pump:’ ‘You must have faith and believe, you’ve got to give of yourself before you’re worthy to receive.’ So goes the old song ‘Desert Pete’ and members of Marine Aircraft Group 36 [MAG-36] at Phu Bai know this to be true in aiding the Vietnamese. Marine Gunnery Sergeant Charles H. Graves (Baltimore, Maryland) helped the village chief of Thuy Chau install a pump in the village well. The pump was given to the village by Marine Air Base Squadron 36 (official USMC photo by Corporal W. J. Roberts)."

From the Jonathan Abel Collection (COLL/3611), Marine Corps Archives & Special Collections.
