    Chris dont call us medics they are in the Army just like Marines dont like to be called soldiers Soldier.The PJs I have alot of respect for. But the way you talk about the PLS bailing peolpe out s^&t how about the Docs who dive on a granade or sacrifices himself to save his brother.. So I alway tell people to either call me doc or Corpman not "MEDIC" Just like you guys want to be called Marines not soldier. So that is my 2 cent I hope I did offend you Chris but I just want to set people strait about us Corpman. I am suprised because you know the history of brother between a Doc and his grunts. Anyway Godbless and Semper Fi my brother.

    Doc, that's why I put "medic" in quotes. It means that isn't the correct term. A bit of sarcasm if you will.

    I am very well aware about Corpsmen and their sacrifices. I was also permanent personnel at Field Med School at Camp Lejuene after I got back from Vietnam. So I had a bit of a hand in getting young docs turned into Devil Docs. I always got along well with Corpsmen (at least I think so). Some of them were good drinking buddies as well. Some of the Chiefs on staff were three war vets. The CO was a pre-war pharmacist mate and an MSC Lt in Korea where he got a Silver Star. The Leading Chief had been on the Bataan Death March as a boot pharmacist mate and got bayoneted when he stopped to help a Marine who fell out. Some really tough old goats in that outfit. Old Navy to the max. I was proud to know those guys.

    I am very very Sorry Chris forgive me,it is just that I am tired of hearing people calling us medics and sailors. I love my Marine brothersand sisters. I have a lotof respect for PJs. But I sort of got upset because the corpsmen and the Mrines have the longest history of brother hood,First we werew the lobbyboy and then Pharmacist Mate and finally corpsman. I hope still can be friends,Semper Fi god bless and love you my brother.

    Believe me....Chris would never intentionally show disrespect to a Navy Corpsman.

    After reading the comments and in honor of our Navy Corpsmen Brothers, I went and corrected the article to reflect the correct name.

    The original author apparently didn't know any better...

    Sempper Fi Corpsmen, and Doc FMF...

    I used to think that California would be a great place to live; my thinking and knowledge of California has changed completely. Too many liberals; queers, transsexuals, and Democrats for me
