Thanks sailor! Posted on 2/25/99 - by John "Doc" Holladay jnh$ti.com Jeff was one of the Corpsman. When he died I had just turned over the platoon to another Lt. Always felt that if I still had the platoon I would not have pulled the same mistake that got a good part of the platoon wiped out that day, but then maybe I would be listed here also. Jeff was a guy who had a lot of life and a lot to look forward to. Special thanks to the many Navy Corpsman who died serving the Marine Corps. May he rest in peace. John "Doc" Holladay Former Captain of Marines
