Gunnery Sgt. Lawrence Bostic and Capt. Robert A. Christian are presented with the Navy and Marine Corps Medal during an award ceremony behind 3rd Marine Regiment Headquarters building aboard Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Jan. 6. They were awarded for their actions when they saved a drowning Marine at Pyramid Rock Beach, on May 21, 2009.
Bostic, a Whitmire, S.C., native, is a wire chief with Headquarters and Service Company, 3rd Marine Regiment. Christian, a Huntsville, Ala., native, is a ground intelligence officer with Headquarters and Service Company, 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment.
“It’s very humbling to know that our command is recognizing this and awarding us for it,” Bostic said. “I’m happy to have this award, but even more happy that the Marine turned out to be ok and nobody was hurt.”
