War hero from Old Town dies at 80
By RICHARD GOLDSTEIN, The New York Times
Guy Gabaldon, a Marine private in World War II who used extraordinary grit and a smattering of Japanese phrases to capture more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers single-handedly in the battle for Saipan, died Thursday in Old Town. He was 80.
