Please help me honor Navy Hospital Corpsman 3rd Class Lee Hamilton Deal, he passed May 17, 2006 serving during Operation Iraqi Freedom
“Our corpsmen are special to us Marines, and in every sense of the word, they are fellow Marines,” said Lt Col. James N. Bright, commanding officer of 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion.
Bright explained that Deal died “fearlessly clearing a suspected insurgent stronghold with his fellow Marines, willingly sacrificing his own safety to the benefit of his fellow Marines and to the successful accomplishment of the mission.”
Deal was described by 1st Lt. Craig Q. Reese, his platoon commander, as an outspoken, energetic, funny, caring young man who once performed first aid on a cow because that was part of what Deal saw as his responsibility.
“Every platoon needs that funny, outspoken guy,” said Cpl. Thomas N. Steshko. “We had ‘Doc’ Lee Deal. He always put everything into perspective and broke the ice when tensions were high.
