This page is dedicated to every Navy Corpsmen and Doctor that served with the Magnificent Bastards of 2/4.

These brave men stood side by side with us in battle, they climbed every hill with us, they tended our wounds & held our hands in what seemed to be our darkest hours.  Be it peacetime or a time of conflict, a Corpsman will always occupy a space in a Marine's heart.
