Captain Haldane was the finest and most popular officer I ever knew. All of the Marines in Company K shared my feelings.

We were thankful that Ack Ack was our skipper, felt more secure in it, and felt sorry for other companies not so fortunate. — E.B. Sledge, With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa (1981)
