The last surviving member of World War II’s famed Merrill’s Marauders, who endured harsh conditions, malnutrition, and relentless tropical disease as they fought behind Japanese enemy lines in Burma, has died.

Russell Hamler died Tuesday at a veterans hospital in Pittsburgh, PA. He was 99.

His death was confirmed by Jonnie Melillo Clasen, whose father was a Marauder. In recent years, Clasen has served as an informal liaison to the still-living Marauders and their families as the veterans grew too old for reunions.

Hamler had been living with his son Jeffrey in Baldwin Township, Pa. until he was hospitalized, Clasen told Stars and Stripes in an email Tuesday.

Hamler was the last of roughly 3,000 original Marauders sent to capture an airfield in Burma, now known as Myanmar, a mission few were expected to survive.

In trenches deep, on this Christmas Eve,
As snowflakes fall, I can't help but grieve,
For home and family, so far away,
But duty calls, and here I must stay.

Surrounded by comrades, in the cold and dark,
We stand together, a united spark,
Protecting our land, our freedom we defend,
As we pray for peace, this war to end.

The stockings are hung by our beds with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon will be there,
But instead of presents, we wish for a sign,
That soon we'll return to the ones we call mine.

Our voices may tremble, our hearts may be heavy,
But the spirit of Christmas keeps us steady,
We find hope in each other, in our bonds so tight,
As we dream of a world where there's no need to fight.

So on this silent night, under the stars above,
I send you my love, from a soldier's heart with love,
Merry Christmas to all, near and far,
May peace and goodwill shine like a star.
