Retired Navy Capt. Donald McMackin speaks to the audience during the Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command Camp Pendleton Pearl Harbor Remembrance Ceremony held in the Naval Hospital Camp Pendleton Medal of Honor Promenade on Friday, Dec. 6, 2024. McMackin was commissioned in 1980 and served either on active duty or in the reserves as a surface warfare officer until January 2011 and served as the event guest speaker. “When the attack came, off-duty medical personnel and staff streamed back to the facilities. Staff broke out supplies, made more bandages, prepared morphine injections … they set up triage areas, battle dressing stations, organized ambulances and transportation pools,” said McMackin during his comments. Planned and executed by the First Class Petty Officer Association, the event honored the 2,403 service members and civilians who died in the attack on the US Naval Base at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.
