Mongolian in Vietnam War

I just discovered here that a Mongolian, Cpl. Enver Bajin, was killed in the Vietnam War:
Cpl. Enver BAJIN116426657/6055 USMC was from College Point, New York. He was born on Dec. 27, 1948. He arrived in Viet nam on July 23, 1970. He was 21 years old at the time of his death on Nov. 18, 1970. He died as a result of a Helicopter crash on land, in Quang Nam Province, due to Hostile fire. His body was recovered. He was single. His race was Mongolian.
His name can be found at The Vietnam Veterans Memorial (official page here; unofficial page here) in Washington, D.C. on panel 06W, line 67.

Semper Fi.

Enver Bajin's ethnic background is Volga Tatar - not Mongolian.
