Jim - I remember you so well - big man, big smile, big heart. I will never forget that you served as a hero to us Marines in Vietnam as a Corpsman, as well as a fellow police officer on IPD. I am writing a book about my 32 years on IPD. You are going to be in it because I want to continue to honor your memory and your sacrifice and say your name and write it in my book. I hope that makes your kids and grandkids happy buddy. RIP.

I served with the US Marine Corps in Viet Nam with James M Compton, "Doc" , US Navy Corpsman in 1966-1967.
Myself and my fellow Marines hold Doc in the highest regard both as a Corpsman and friend. We would like to hear from members of his family to share thoughts and memories.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 36th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered.

I met your son today. He seems like fine man, that you would be proud of. Thank you for your service to our country in the USMC, but most of all, thank you for your service to our city. You will never be forgotten.

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

All gave some, Some gave all
