The family of US Navy veteran Joseph Cornwall has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor this American Hero. It will be our privilege to do so.
Joseph served proudly during WWII, also the Korean War, and Vietnam War and received a Bronze Star. He first enlisted on 7-16-1945 and retired from the US Navy on 4-1-74. Joseph retired as a Senior Chief. After retirement he worked as a civil servant at Naval Air Station North Island, San Diego, CA
He is survived by his two daughters Marsha Baham and Lea Wiltenmuth, 10 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren.
