Corpsman Up! (Senryu)

by Charles Keller — Read all 159 poems by Charles Keller

"Corpsman Up!" is a cry heard many times as the United States Marines fight and lie wounded. The United States Navy Hospital Corpsman is the "Medic" for field/combat Marines. They have won more Medals of Honor than any other single rating in any military service. They are selfless heroes.

a soldier running
toward a wounded comrade
as bullets fly by
