Hey Marines!
I was just on the School of Infantry, West web-site. I was very impressed. The current training is ten weeks? So, a Grunt has eleven weeks of Boot Camp and ten of Grunt school? We got have the training in '79.

We had 1 1/2 weeks of forming and then 8 weeks of intense training at PI boot. They were really running us through back then. Platoon 336.

Dentonz, You guys got much more than we did--26 weeks? That's a lot of training.
