It was likewise an honor for me to serve as a Platoon Corpsman in Kilo and Lima 3/5. Many brave men - some who are not with us - some who remain. God Bless them all!

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)

Aye, GOD bless them all, and GOD bless your service and the care and skill in your hands...........when they needed you most...My sincere thanks to you for being there for them!

My unit was 10 Marines and a Corpsman. When our Doc got hit I became the temp. Corpsman until we got another. This happened twice in two months.

I did my first IV and delivered a baby when I was 18. I preformed my only (Thank God) tracheotomy when was 19. Morphine and bandages were a weekly thing.

When we got a new Doc I was so happy to be just a Marine Radioman again.

Corpsmen do a heluva job and I never wanted to be one.
