Merriam Press Military Monograph 138. First Edition (June 2012).
Donald McClure Fenwick enlisted in the United States Marine Corps
at the young age of 18. His destiny was to serve his country as a
Marine and to make the Marine Corps a career. He reported to Marine
Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego, California in January 1957 for
recruit training and retired in October 1990. For 33 years he
served our nation and retired as a Master Gunnery Sergeant. His
illustrious military career embodies both the old breed and the new
breed of the Marine Corps. Donald would serve in distant lands such
as Vietnam and Okinawa with several cruises aboard ship in the
Caribbean Sea and Mediterranean Sea. His 33 years of honest and
faithful service to the United States of America and to the Marine
Corps is a legacy and a story that needs to be told. His story will
capture your attention and give you an insight into the reality of
what being a United States Marine is all about. His personal
experiences while growing up on the farm in rural Kentucky and
while progressing through the enlisted ranks, reveal the espirit de
corps, camaraderie and the struggles he had to endure. He is a
national asset as are many of the unsung heroes of our time. May we
never forget their personal sacrifices and love of country and
Corps. Contents: Life on the Farm; A Destiny to Serve; Vietnam-The
Early Years; Vietnam-The Second Tour; Okinawa-Back to The Rock; The
Love of his Life; Retirement-Life after the Corps. 71 photos
(mostly of Vietnam, all unpublished).
