My Corpsman
Posted for: WAYNE MAURICE CARON:
HM3 Wayne M. Caron was one of my finest corpsmen in the Ophthalmology Dept. of Naval Hospital, Great Lakes, Illinois, in 1968. He was reassigned to Vietnam as corpsman for the U.S. Marines, leaving behind a very pretty and lovely young wife who was pregnant with their first child. I will never forget my profound sadness when, not long afterward, we were informed of his tragic death on the field of battle. His gallantry and valor in service to his country and to his marines was what everyone who knew Wayne would have expected. My sincerest sympathy will forever go to his wife, child, and family. I will never forget Wayne.
