41 years ago today I stepped on the yellow footprints at the wonderful Island and then I thought what the hell have I done,lost my mind.And then the Drill Instructor began to let me know that he would tell me everything to say and do and that I was his for the next13 weeks.Thus started my wonderful 6 years in the Marine Corps.:evilgrin::evilgrin::evilgrin:
