Hospital Corps School

Lenny and I were close back in Corps school, he was from Mass. and I am from Connecticut. We had plans to get together after our service days. I was totally heart broken when I read of his loss. I had 3 sets of orders for Viet Nam and yet they were always changed a day before I was suppose to leave. I was kept at Portsmith Naval Hospital in Virgina. I never got over the guilt of not going over and who I could have helped.

Thoughts from a six year old neighbor

I was six years old and lived across the street and down on Elm Street where Lenny lived. We knew the family and attended church together and my Dad was the pastor. I remember the day my mom received the call from Doris Chesley informing us of Lenny’s loss. I had the cookie jar out and was trying to get her attention to see if I could have a cookie. As I became aware of the conversation, I slowly returned the cookie jar to its place and went away to think about a neighbor that would never come home and a grieving family.

Lenny Corpsman

I’m from Uxbridge Massachusetts, Lenny lived in the north end. He’s a few years older than me and I didn’t know him, but I knew his mom. After he was killed, my mom wrote a story about him and she was a writer for a newspaper and independent writer as well. I remember Mrs. Chesley coming up to the house, and how hard it was for her. I’ve never forgotten him and I have visited him in his resting place which is Prospect Hill Cemetery in Uxbridge, Massachusetts. RIP
