Don’ t Let Me Die, Doc. There's s too Much i in Life fo Live for Yet'

By S. SGT. ED MEAGHER Marine Corps Correspondent NAHA, Okinawa (Delayed) —

Right after the marine was hit—

an artillery shell exploded in his

foxhole near here—he told his lieutenant, “Get me. back. I'm not going to die.”

His left leg was sheared off al--

most at the hip. * His left’ arm, from fingertips’ to shoulder, was shattered. A fragment punched a hole in his stomach and per~ forated his bladder. . rE. » ALMOST incidental in compari-: son were compound fractures of three bones in his right foot and numerous slivers of steel in his right leg. He was brought into the -6th marine division's “A” medical company forward hospital. The leatherneck was conscious. He looked up .at the young navy doctor, “Don't let me die, doc,” he"said. “There’s too. much in life to live for yet.”

» » » THE “doc” was navy. Lt (jg) William ©. Manion -of Bethal,

Conn, and Washington, D. C,

where he’ earned his medial degree at Georgetown in 1943 and interned at, Garfield hospital in 1044; “ “Don’t - let - me die, doc,” the marine repeated. Not pleading, not frightened. He was just

asking: for a little help, a ‘mane

in trouble, The young doctor paused. “I won't +» +" He hesitated. “I won't let you die,” he said firmly, EUR HE INJECTED gix pints of whole blood into the marine's veins. Still no noticeable pulse. He then gave him seven and ones half cubic centimeters of coramine, a blood pressure stimulant, The marine responded slightly. The stump was hemorrhaging dangerously. - An operation was necessary, but the surgeon, navy Lt. Cmdr. H. Barton McSwain of New York, was fearful the marine wouldn't recover from anesthesia, :

” aR 8 _DR. McSWAIN operated on the leg the next day. Dr. Manion administered . the anesthetic, “I prayed all the way,” he said. “I

kept expecting him to dle and praying he wouldn't.” .The leatherneck survived. The

shattered arm was amputated

the following day. Gangrene had set in. : Three days later he “was still

| alive. He was holding his own— and more. He was cocky. He had offered to punch a navy corpsman in the nose if the food didn’t improve. He was being fed intravenously at the time. 8 n LJ THE MARINE'S courage and

Stories concerning him were told ~and retold until, in a sense, they

became legends. He told Dr. Manion one day what his- Post-war. -plans ‘had been, He had joined the marine corps after completing a year of college, His major was pre-med. He wanted to be a surgeon. That ine formation, too, was reported and passed on from man to man, 2 » » » ON THE seventh day he was evacuated by air transport, He had been given 15 pints of whole blood, eight pints of ‘blood plas ma, 30 cc's of coramine and from two to three million . units o penicillin, Doctors estimated his c¢ of living at one in a 100 when he entered the hospital, “He had a$ least 80 chances out of 100 when he left,” said Cmdr, Nowlin.
