I was a n HM2 who flew MEDEVAC in RVN, 1969-1970 and I am seeking to contact Seventh Marine Regiment Corpsmen who would like to be featured in my next military history book which would be about Docs who served with the Seventh in Vietnam and beyond. My first book entitled LUMINOUS BASE was about HM's who flew as aircrew members, passengers or patients on helicopters. Proceeds from my books are donated to help wounded Vets. If interested, please contact me at corpsmen.book@gmail.com.........Thanks & Semper Fi BWB

Just read a great book "In The Company Of Marines" by Dr. James Finnegan. Story about the Doctors and Corpsman who ran Charlie Med during the battle of Khe Sanh. This should be interesting for all corpsmen and marines.

Was patched up by a Corpsman during intense fire from hard core North Vietnamese Army and local Viet Cong troops, who abushed us when we were going to relieve Echo 4 Combined Action Platoon during their battle of Lo Giang. Laid in the rice paddy all night, and would have probably bled out during the firefight, or during the night, without his quick action in patching the AK wound thru my left socket which exited my scapula. The Corpsman, HM3 Gregory Allen Gifford, treated other wounded Marines until he was killed. He bravery, and dedication to saving his Marines needs to be recognized by the government. Where do I begin to get him recognized, and honored for his courage and commitment to his Marines and duty?

I served as a Corpsman from 1967 - 1969. I took Corps school in Great Lakes and then on to Camp Lejuene for field training. I arrived in Lejuene in October 67 and then left for Philadelphia Naval Hospital. I never went to Nam, serving my entire time at the Hospital in Philly. While there, Lt. Lewis Puller came back and was one of my patients. I met his father, General Lewis "Chesty" Puller.
I am looking for a guy who went through Corps School and Field Med School with me. His name is Mike Cracciola. He was from the St. Louis, Missouri area. His mother died from burns while we were in training. I lost touch with him and have wondered for all these years if he is still alive and if he is, I wonder where he is and what he is doing. Can you help??
Thanks.
