Ben was my first medic when I checked into my first command at Underwater Construction Team One in 1996.

Our condolences. Ben was one of our IDC's when I first got to UCT ONE in 1997. Made us new guys feel welcome. Great corpsman. Very sorry to hear of his passing

Johnson family, I am so sorry for your loss. I remember what a great swimmer Ben was when we were kids. May God give you comfort at this difficult time.

Ben and I were great school friends at St. John´s... or as us Middletown Catholics know it...John XXIII - West Campus. Sometimes, we sneak over to George´s grocery on Central Avenue and buy candy after school, which was not permitted. Especially by patrol crossing guards. That was the last day I was a school crossing guard. Thanks, Ben! Love ya, brother!
