LCpl Marvin Edward Cohee Jr.,66,USMC,Vietnam,RNC - 28 MAR 16
« on: March 22, 2016, 07:07:10 PM »
The family of Marvin Edward Cohee (Ed) has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to honor their hero for his service and sacrifice to his country. It will be our privilege to do so.
Ed served with the United States Marines from June, 1967 to May, 1973, with rank of Lance Corporal E3 at discharge. He served in Vietnam in 1967 and 1968 and while there he was exposed to Agent Orange. This exposure was a factor in his death.

When Ed left the Corp he worked as a Diesel truck Mechanic for many years.  His hobbies included Legend car racing, NASCAR and motorcycles.  A family man, Ed is survived by wife Janice, children Mike, Joey, Doug and Cathleen; eight grandchildren and five great grandchildren.

This is a combat related mission.  Dog tags will be available.
