Corpsmen
Thanks jdoc. Then yes I was 8408. Went FMF back in 1966. Joined up with Bravo 1-3-3 in DaNang Vietnam in August of 66 and headed to Khe Sanh shortly thereafter. I lasted until May 10 of 67 before almost meeting my maker. Took a hit to the chest and had to leave my men. Sad day for me cause I was all Marine, felt like I let them down for not running fast enough. Oh well, thankfully it wasn't my time. Thank my lucky stars everyday and think of my men every night. It never goes away. Proudest moments of my life! No regrets here.
