Summary[edit]

Description

"Happy Easter: Sergeant Hubert L. McKinely (Buena Park, California) and Lance Corporal Celestino Martinez (Detroit, Michigan), both cooks at the Headquarters Battalion, 3d Marine Division mess hall in Quang Tri, pass out Easter eggs they prepared and decorated for the children at the 3d Marine Division Memorial Children’s Hospital at Dong Ha. Navy doctors have been very successful in corrective surgery for harelip deformities in youngsters and the word has been passed all over the two northern provinces of South Vietnam. Rural parents who previously thought there was nothing that could be done for the deformity now have hope for a brighter future for their children. The hospital also is earning a reputation for performing ‘miracles’ in the treatment of skin diseases (official USMC photo by Corporal John G. McCullough)."
