To: Kathy in Alaska
Ah, yes - I remember it well! Company 6809. Entered in February, 1968 and graduated in May 1968. I was taught by some sterling Nurses and Corpsmen. Our Company Commander was HMC Rip Wilkinson and our Company Nurse was Lcdr Fey. Great leaders and teachers! I owe them a lot - any proficiency I developed was largely as a result of their influence.



"Riamh nár dhruid ó sbairn lann!"

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
