  32. “A very dear kind selfless lady Barbara D Whitehead runs NC packs for the patriots. She lost her brother yesterday and is planning his funeral. He served as a Navy corpsman attached to the 3rd Marine Division in Viet Nam, and also served at Cherry Point. He has lost his marine Dress Blues cover and she would like one for his service. Do you know where we could get one. I am assuming I only have army ones here. She does so much for our troops I would love if we could do something for her. Melanie Catherine Tozer Cox and Vinnie L. Howard since you guys are involved with marine life I was hoping I could get some info from you. If anyone else has info please help! Lets give this vet the burial he deserves!” “This came from an old karate student of mine. Her husband was in the Navy in the 80’s & went back into the Army at age 40! She contacted me the other day with this request. I looked on the MCL website for a detachment nearby & gave her the contact info & called Commandant Rick Queen of the Sgt. Doug Meyers Detachment of Sylva, NC. They went above & beyond to come to her aid! Semper Fi brothers & thanks!” Vinnie
