Myron Charles Harrington Jr.

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)

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.

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.

The ultimate professional, Myron´s devotion to education was evident. It was a pleasure being a colleague of his at The Citadel.

Semper Fi Sir ! Thank you for your service to the Marine Corps !
