    PA PA - Cpl. Robert Corriveau, 20, Downington, 18 Nov 1968

    It was a damp morning, the ground would have been moist due to a light rainfall. There were no tire marks, footprints, or scuffle marks reported. If he were killed on location I would think some of those would have existed. It would have taken more than a split second to commit this crime...

    Again, the cut was superficial, not deep, as I've been told and have read. No defensive wounds, anywhere on his body. He had no bruising at the sight of the scratch. Could have been received being scratched when leaving body up against fencing, construction area. How was body brought to sight...

    I was told the cut was superficial, it appeared as such in the photos I have seen. The autopsy did not note it. He had a scar on his left cheek caused by shrapnel in Vietnam, the autopsy did not note it. He had significant scarring on his left knee, the autopsy did not note it.

    I sent a reply in conversations, first time I've used that feature, I didn't find it easy.

    This question has nothing to do with helping to solve a 50 year old homicide cold case but..... Why do servicemen/women wear dog tags? What purpose do they serve?

    Maybe not in your eyes, but that is exactly how the dog tags were written, and of course one could not use them at a bank, police station etc, they were for military use. Example had he been killed in Vietnam, the tag would stay with the body... Had they been on when his were discovered the PSP...

    A military ID containing name, rank, serial#, unit, assigned company etc and or a drivers license would all be written documentation. The dog tags as I remember them, CORRIVEAU R D USMC (serial #) 2148499 (religion) RC (blood type) O

    Your "out there" made sense to the family prior to identification in 2012.

    I do not think Bobby would commit suicide intentionally or otherwise. He felt going back to Vietnam suited him best, he wanted to remain a Marine.

    Been told there was very little blood. Have you heard of a Marlin spike? It also could not be ruled out, how much force was applied. What if the surprise of the stab caused Corriveau to fall into the 'spike' or rounded object, perhaps a screw driver, that was not ruled out. It is possible he...

    What if he were a passenger in a car with some military guy at the wheel, carrying a navy knife that had a 4-5" rounded blade (used to cut a rope on a ship quickly) who for whatever reason very quickly reached over and stabbed him with such force it pierced his heart and lung, leaving the car...

    Because there were no toxicology test done, we do not know.

    I sent you a private email at the address you provided in conversations. He always wore his dog tags. They did not do toxicology tests.
