“For some reason or another, he wanted to be a corpsman,” Youngblood said of his son, Petty Officer 3rd Class Travis Levy Youngblood.
Travis Youngblood, 26, died Thursday in a military hospital from shrapnel wounds.

Whoever is saying that travis is their father please stop. First he wasn't even in the phillipines at the time you should have been born and also he never touched foot in the country as he couldn't leave the ship. If you want to prove this we can have a DNA test. I am his wife and the mother of his ONLY TWO CHILDREN. He is not your father and please stop ruining his name if you want you can contact me to get this straight. so stop lying
