Harry Morrissey of Everett was finally given a proper burial on September 22 at Arlington National Cemetery. Morrissey enlisted in the Marines on September 4, 1940, at the age of 25. At the time, he was living with his uncle, Joseph Joyal, and worked as a truck driver for the Eagle Mattress Company. Two years later, while serving with the 1st Battalion, 7th Marines, Morrissey was killed during the Battle of Guadalcanal on October 9, 1942. Because of “rapid unit movement,” Morrissey and two other Marines, Pfc. Francis Drake of Springfield and Pvt. Albert Bernes of Indiana, were left in shallow graves on Skyline Ridge, also known as Hill 73. In 2011, Guadalcanal resident Yorick Tokuru came forward saying he had discovered possible human remains on Skyline Ridge while working in his yard. Further digging resulted in Drake’s dog tag being recovered. According to military records, Drake, Morrissey and Bernes were buried together. In response to Tokuru’s report, investigators with the Royal Solomon Islands Police Force explored the site and recovered what were indeed human remains. The remains were then sent to John Innes, a leading authority on the Battle of Guadalcanal. The remains were ultimately turned over Marine Pfc. Harry Morrissey of Everett was killed during World War II at the Battle of Guadalcanal in the Pacific Ocean’s Solomon Islands on October 9, 1942.

As a result of his bravery during the battle, Morrissey was posthumously awarded the Purple Heart. He also received several other accolades, including the American Campaign Medal, the World War II Victory Medal, the Marine Corps Presidential Unit Citation and the Combat Action Ribbon.
