Raymon W. Herndon (1918–1942) was a United States Marine who received a posthumous Navy Cross for his actions in the Guadalcanal campaign during World War II. ==Biography== Raymon W. Herndon was born on 1 November 1918 at Waterboro, South Carolina. He reported for active duty with the United States Marine Corps on 29 April 1942 at New River, North Carolina. During World War II, Private First Class Herndon was serving with the 1st Marine Division during action against Japanese forces on Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands on 14 September 1942. While engaged in a hazardous reconnaissance patrol on the southern slope of a hill, Herndon was mortally wounded. With the Japanese advancing rapidly on his position, and realizing that he had no chance to survive, he asked that he be left with a weapon to cover the withdrawal of his patrol to the top of the hill.
