    Spent 25 wonderful months(April 1971 to May 1973) at the Naval Hospital Beaufort South Carolina. Those people down there do not know the Civil War is over and that they lost.

    Anthony,

    I was an HM2 OR Tech on board USS Long Beach and spent a few weeks in Subic around Christmas 1976. Talked my doc into letting me go up to the hospital to scrub an inguinal hernia. Were you there then?

  • Randall Keith Hunter September 16, 2012 at 10:14pm

    I'd love to go, but I'm stuck here in Afghanistan 'til at least November

Fleet Marine Force Service medal/ribbon

The Navy has yet to recognize the FMF service of thousands of Grunt Docs who have served side by side with the Marines for generations. In 1984 then Navy Secretary Lehman came out with an FMF ribbon but only for FMF service after 1984.The Navy should either recognize all of us Grunt Docs or none at all; choosing only those whose FMF service was post 1984 is a slap in the face to PRE-1984 FMF Hospital Corpsmen.FMF Ribbon service post 1984.gif
