Hello to all my brothers.
I graduated Hospital Corpsman A School at Balboa Naval Hosp. in 1969. From there I got orders to F.M.S. Camp Pendelton, where I earned my Greens. I remember Gunny Roach telling me "Them Greens Aint Issued Doc, They're Earned." I was with 3rd Marine Recon for only 2 weeks when I caught some shrapnel and was shipped back to San Diego. I was ultimatly discharged with 10% service connected disability.
My Grandaughter gave me a jacket with Corp. emblem on the back. When I earned my Greens, did I also earn the Eagle Globe and Anchor? I would wear it proudly, but dont want to offend.
