Rest in Peace "Doc", "I'm the One Called "Doc…" I shall not walk in your footsteps, but I will walk by your side. I shall not walk in your image, I've earned my own title of pride. We've answered the call together, on sea and foreign land. When the cry for help was given, I've been there right at hand. Whether I am on the ocean or in the jungle wearing greens, Giving aid to my fellow man, be it Sailors or Marines. So the next time you see a corpsman and you think of calling him "squid", Think of the job he's doing as those before him did. And if you ever have to go out there and your life is on the block, Look at the one right next to you. I'm the one called "Doc". Harry D. Penny, Jr. HMC(AC)USN, HMCM John Bruneel, USN Retired, [email protected]

The Vietnam Wall Experience was traveling through Winston-Salem, North Carolina this weekend and I paid my respects to all the men and women who gave their lives to this great country of ours. I've never been to Washington to see the real thing, so I've had to catch The Wall whenever it came through Winston-Salem. I can't believe I'm writing this after all these years. You meant the world to me and I wish I had acted on those feelings back in 1967-68. Your dad is now with you in Heaven and I know he is happy to finally get to see you again. Your pledge and commitment to our country will never be forgotten. You remain in my heart continuously and I HONOR AND APPRECIATE YOU! With Love! Barbara Duggins Sale. [email protected]

To Terry: He graduated from Stokes High School, Class of 1965. A friend in school and a hero at what he did. He gave the utmost to one and all. HE IS MISSED EACH AND EVERY DAY and the question remains what if with no possible answer God Bless and may God keep you My friend. Rest in greatness and keep the spirit. You gave your all: You are not here today but your memory will be with me for ever God Bless Semper Fi. May God show your goodness as man couldn't. Charles T Mabe. School Classmate, 131 Forest Dr, Kernersville, NC 27284 Forsyth, [email protected].

Some Memories Never Fade. Terry and I went through Barber School together at Winston-Salem Barber School. He became a good and close friend. I think of him often and wish that his zest for life and compassion for others were still with us. Rest in Peace my friend and fellow Vet.

I served with the Marines in Quang Nam Province south of Da Nang. He died on December 28, 1968 of wounds received from an explosive device on December 27, 1968. Although I met Terry earlier, we became good friends while attending Winston-Salem Barber School together in 1965. Danny Anderson, 2209 Baggins Lane, Charlotte NC, 28269, [email protected].

He served as a Medical Corpsman with H&S Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Marines, 1st Marine Division, 3rd Marine Amphibious Forces.
