JOHN  ODONNELL MARINE VET TO HONOR ONE OF THE BRAVEST CORPSMAN Well the name DOC is something to behold. Not everyone can be a DOC It takes a man with special courage and conviction to be a NAVY CORPSMAN (DOC). These men go into battle with not weapons but with medical kits. and then when the battle is at it's fiercest than the call comes DOC UP. He goes, and while bullets and bombs going off the CORPSMAN gives aid to his fallen charges. These MEN are real HERO'S and we should remember their deeds daily. SEMPER FI DOC and THANK YOU. You are not forgotten Mar 22, 2014

Manuel Pino Jr mpjr54@msn.com Fellow Medic NATIVE AMERICAN PRAYER It is said a man hasn't died as long as he is remembered. This prayer is a way for families, friends and fellow veterans to remember our fallen brothers and sisters. Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die Tuesday, June 07, 2005
Rick Zunino DocHill861@aol.com Navy Corps School Classmate Big Joyhn John Reid, Hn~ Navy Corpsman. I was in Corps School, at Balboa, San Diego, class 21-67 with John. I didn't know him well, but he seemed like a real nice guy, a gentle giant. John was a big man, could of been a Marine. I'm sure John was a good Corpsman, that the Marines liked and respected. I'm surprised after all these years that there isn't anything on this page about him. I'm not sure what unit he was with. You are not forgotten, John. May you rest in peace.Hm3~ Rick Zunino A Co. 1/26 Marines 2nd platoon, Dec 67~Dec 68 Saturday, January 26, 2002
