One of our dinner guests this evening mentioned that there is a Marine named Raymond Hopkins, originally from Long Island, who was on Iwo Jima, who is having a very hard time with Cancer. I plan on seeing him at one of the Restaurant/Bar/Lounges that he frequents, along with my friend, soon. Perhaps one of you know him. I wish I knew more about this Marine. The only thing I know aside from him dying of Cancer is that he drinks his four beers and then heads home and that he lives around the Hollywood, Florida area. I'll find out more once I meet him.
If you do or do not know this Marine and wish for me to pass on your well wishes.....you know the drill. Whatever responses I have to this thread I will pass on to Raymon Hopkins, U.S.M.C.
Thanks.
Gary
