Corydon M. Loomis, 81, a retired Corpsman in the US Navy of 20 years passed away Monday, April 16, 2012 with his family by his side at Kent Hospital.

Mr. Loomis was a proud veteran of the US Navy, enlisting on August 21, 1947, just 17 days after his 17th birthday. He served during the Korean and Vietnam Wars aboard many ships including aircraft carriers USS Coral Sea and USS Essex as well as submarines and sub-tenders - USS Sablefish (where he was nicknamed "Doc"), USS Blenny, USS Conger, USS Sarda, the nuclear-powered USS Triton (credited with the first submerged circumnavigation of the earth in Operation Sandblast), atomic-powered USS Seawolf, USS Sea Owl, USS Shark, USS Canopus, and USS Fulton.

During his service, Mr. Loomis had Secret Clearance and earned five (5) Good Conduct awards, a National Defense medal, and the Navy's "Europe" Occupation Service Clasp. He retired in 1968 as a Hospital Medic, Petty Officer First Class (HM1) after 20 years of service. After retiring from the US Navy, Corydon worked for 18 years at Ciba-Geigy and 5 years at the US Postal Service.

Burial with military honors was in the Rhode Island Veterans Cemetery, Exeter.
