Does anyone that was in LeJeune in '85 recall a MGySgt that retired along with the 2nd MarDiv XO?? They had a joint retirement ceremony. They both went through boot camp. They both had over 30 as they were both Korean vets. The MGySgt was a Korean, Vietnam & Grenada/Lebanon vet. The XO was Korean, and several Vietnam tour vet. If I recall one was quite shot up and had a waiver to stay in??? Our CO had the MGySgt as a DI at Quntico so our company was "invited " to drill at the parade and we got a nice little program that I lost somewheres along the line. Anyone remember this? YES I know it's a LOOOOONG shot!!

Damn this is a though one or no one here was there during that time. I think it was in the base paper or the Jacksonville paper or tv? Might've been in Leatherneck or Marine Times magazine's? Do recall there was some media types there.
Hell I don't know, just know I was there and remember a media tent.
