Myron Charles Harrington Jr.

I remember serving at the US Embassy, Canberra, Australia when then Maj. Harrington was Asst. Naval Attache there. Very approachable and a true gentleman. Fair Winds And Following Seas Sir.

Myron was a wonderful man and a heroic Marine. In spite of his accomplishments he remained humble. I was honored to be called his friend and admirer.

Joined by my wife, Karen, we are deeply saddened by Myron's loss, but grateful to he and Ann as instrumental in our own family's journey through life. They were Godparents to our oldest son, John, at Parris Island and remained beloved and respected mentors throughout my career in the Marine Corps. I never met a finer Marine officer or Christian gentleman than Myron. May God bless his family in these difficult times of grief. Respectfully, W.M. Meade, Colonel, USMC (Ret)

My CO at Parris Island. 1978. PLT 3045. RIP Sir.

Myron was my boss at Marine Corps Institute in 1966 after my return from Vietnam. What a great boss and mentor he was! He left from MCI for Vietnam just in time to take over a rifle company in the Battle of Hue. He sent us a letter at the 'Tute where he told us that his Company Gunnery Sergeant was one of the infantry course writers from our writer unit, Gunny Bowman. Myron, a Marine extraordinaire and contributor beyond the Marine Corps, is in great company in the next life.

A true hero and mentor to thousands of young men and women. May his memory be eternal.

Mr. Harrington was my school headmaster and was a true to life patriot that fought for freedom. I am very grateful to have had him as headmaster he will be dearly missed.

I remember serving as a Marine Security Guard at the U.S. Embassy in Canberra, Australia wen then Maj. Harington was there. He was a true gentleman who I held in the highest esteem. Rest In Peace, Sir. Fair winds And Following Seas. Semper Fidelis.
