"...caught a couple of junior corpsmen trying to cut a cyst out of a Marine’s armpit..."

Great visual, there, Doc!

I guess I wouldn't want my doctor working on my aircraft, so I shouldn't perform surgery on my body.
My sister's husband is retired Navy corpsman, spent the majority of his time afloat (Inchon, Iwo Jima) - he's had similar stories to tell - just cracks me up!

Best 4 years of my life was when I was attached to the Marines.

I’ve forgotten more good stories from that 4 years than most people accumulate in their life. I love Corpsmen, I love Marines and I met my wife during that assignment.
