Marine's Prayer

 

 

 

 

Hi Marines & Corpsman:

I Speak your Language because as a Fleet Marine Force Combat Corpsman during WWII I served a total of a little over 19 Months attached to the First Marine Division, K-3-5. I Started out at Camp LeJeune with the Fifth Marine Raider Battalion-- No One ever Cussed out the Marines anymore than I did BUT that Training is what kept me alive-- and should I ever have it to do over again; I would.

To any of you Corpsman that think the Marine Duty is not what you joined the Navy for-- You will find out different as time goes by- You have the Best of Both Worlds The Navy & The Marine Corps. You are serving with the Best Fighting Force in the World, Be Proud of it So Keep those Marines Alive. They need you & You Darn Sure Need them.

I served at Guadalcanal, Peleliu, Ngesebus, & Okinawa. The Marines were there for me when I was Hit on Peleliu almost 63 years ago. Be there for Them. As the years Go, you will be Mighty Proud to say " I was a FMF Combat Corpsman".

You are doing a Super Job

"Doc" Davidson
PHM2/C, K-3-5, WWII
