What incredible strength and honor they all exhibited. As BigFred says above - where do they come from? And I too shall circulate this as far and wide as I possibly can. Blessings upon all the Marines; blessings upon all soldiers everywhere. I want to hug them all - is that possible?

I want to hug them all – is that possible?

If only he could have seen it through... he would have realized what a difference he made. At least his mother knows, and got to hold baby Miriam. I wish the rest of the world could realize that our military is made up of more men like Chris Walsh than the so-called "baby-killers", "abusers" and "rapists" the media focuses on. “Chris was waiting his whole life for this”

man.

And I seem to have drawn down my kleenex supply a little... Every time I think I cannot gain any more respect for the medic/corpsman community, something like this comes along and proves me wrong. What a story! I am left a bit speechless after reading that. And I seem to have drawn down my kleenex supply a little…

This one gets filed under "why we serve". I'll sign on the line again nexth month because we have shipmates like Chris Walsh out there, and maybe, just maybe, they'll need an old man's advice or encouragement or TINS or something along the way. RIP, Doc, you done good. Got something in my eye, too.
