I am Dennis Larocque and I remember La Puerta. I remember the incident and it happened at LZ uplift I think and he was in the next bunker over and I heard he got hit by schrapnel during the mortor attack and that was the last I heard of him. I have pictures of the two of us together and can send them if I have an email addy to send them to. Don't know how to attach them here.
