Dennis Helton
In loving memory of Dennis Lee Helton (1953–2026). Dennis proudly served in the United States Marine Corps from 1972–1974 and the U.S. Army from 1975–1979. His units included Alpha Company, 1st Battalion, 5th Marines; Lima Company, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines; Company B, 2nd Battalion, 34th Infantry; and Alpha Company, 1st Battalion, 17th Infantry (Mechanized), 2nd Infantry Division, in Korea during 1976–1977. This profile is maintained by his daughter, who hopes to reconnect with anyone who served alongside him, especially in Korea. We would love to hear memories about Dennis, his fellow soldiers, their assignments, and their experiences near the DMZ.
