    I'm pretty sure that was him. I looked him up on Linkedin and sent him a message. Thanks again!

    I think his name was Baker. He was from Southeast Missouri. We were poolies together and rode the bus to the MEPS together once or twice and I saw him when I was on leave after Boot Camp.

    That would put you one week ahead of me. I was in Lima Company Plt 3063. I had a friend who was in your series, but I don't remember what platoon he was in.

    In 1994, it was 90 or 95 cents for breakfast and $1.90 for lunch or dinner, if I'm not mistaken.

    I'm glad I wasn't on the Iwo. I had gotten off that crappy boat in April of 1990 after a six-month cruise with HMM-365. That ship was a real tub compared to the Guam.

    Seems to me like it would be more secure to not require a sticker. They're already doing ID checks, plus you don't have some guy checking for license, insurance, and registration to get a temporary...

    Wow, that's good on them. I can't believe they only had an hour to decide, though. That's a tough decision to make in an hour.

    I don't think you would get a new DD-214, but you could get a DD-215, which is only an ammendment to add or correct something that you got after you got your DD-214.

    I'm sure people do. There are also people who go into the Corps so they can become cooks.

    I knew plenty of cooks who had gone in open contract. Granted, this was several years ago and things may have changed, but I'd be willing to bet that it's still hard to fill your quota on cooks...

    You make a good point. The negative attitude from people who think they are too salty is something that was always too common in the Corps. I've said that on other threads as well.

    Open contract means you will get put in a field where they need bodies, and probably not a field that anyone wants to be in. If I had it all to do over again, the one thing I would change would be...

    Hey, 101st! I knew you were going to say that when you said you went to Austin Peay. I was in 3/502 from 1994 to 1996.

    Yeah, you should probably mention your prior service in your profile, and put the units in, too. No harm in giving people some information they can relate to.

    Haha!

    That picture looks like it was taken in-theater somewhere, too. I wonder if the guy went overseas as a wide-body or if he was kinda fat, then got bigger when he got there.
