Pictures from co workers at Tinker AFB
|
|
These pictures were actually taken while I was station at Tinker AFB, OK from the period of 2002 to 2005....  And I posted another motivated saying about the Navy Corpsman and the Marince Corps. Keep in mind this Friday, 17th of June the Navy Corpsman will 107 yrs old. I will be attending a Hospital Corps Ball in San Dego on Friday Night. Enjoy 
From the halls of Montezuma
First words of a famous song,
When Marines go into battle,
A Navy corpsman goes along.
From its very beginning
The Corps has steadily grown,
Ant the attitude of a Marine is
"we take care of our own."
Marines may give up their water
Or even their last bean,
But never their Navy corpsman
Wearing the Marine Corps green.
When Marines and their corpsman
are standing side by side,
The first thing you notice
Is the sharing of their pride.
If you are looking for trouble
Of a kind you've never seen,
Attack their Navy Corpsman,
The one in Marine Corps green.
Ed Becker
Thank God for our Corpsman
(From the August Leatherneck Magazine, "Gyrene Gyngles"

A Corpsman Prayer
|
|
A Corpsman's Prayer
Grant me, oh Lord, for the coming events;
Enough knowledge to cope and some plain common sense.
Be at our side on those nightly patrols;
And be merciful judging our vulnerable souls.
Make my hands steady and as sure as a rock;
when the others go down with a wound or in shock.
Let me be close, when they bleed in the mud;
With a tourniquet handy to save precious blood.
Here in the jungle, the enemy near;
Even the corpsman can't offer much lightness and cheer.
Just help me, oh Lord, to save lives when I can;
Because even out there is merit in man.
If It's Your will, make casualties light;
And don't let any die in the murderous night.
These are my friends I'm trying to save;
They are frightened at times, but You know they are brave.
Let me not fail when they need so much;
But to help me serve with a compassionate touch.
Lord, I'm no hero -- my job is to heal;
And I want You to know Just how helpless I feel.
Bring us back safely to camp with dawn;
For too many of us are already gone.
Lord bless my friends If that's part of your plan;
And go with us tonight, when we go out again.

Navy Corpsman with the Marines
|
|
Wherever you find the Marine Corps, there you will find the Navy Hospital Corpsman. In times of peace, he or she toils unceasingly, day and night, providing quality care to numerous beneficiaries. In times of war, he is on the beaches with the Marines, employed in amphibious operations, in transportation of wounded by air, on the battlefield, and on all types of ships, submarines, aircraft carriers, and landing craft. In short, wherever medical services may be required, the Hospital Corpsman is there, not only willing but also prepared to serve his or her country and his fellow man above and beyond the call of duty.

Hosptial Corps Pledge
|
|
Hospital Corpsman's Pledge
I solemnly pledge myself before god and these witnesses to practice faithfully all of my duties as a member of the Hospital Corps. I hold the care of the sick and injured to be a privilege and sacred trust and will assist the Medical Officer with loyalty and honesty. I will not knowingly permit harm to come to any patient. I will hold all personal matters pertaining to the private lives of patients in strict confidence. I dedicate my heart, mind, and strength to the work before me. I shall do all within my power to show in myself an example of all that is honorable and good throughout my naval career.
The Hospital Corps was born June 17, 1898. I will be pledging certain tributes for the Navy Corpsman.
