Arrived MCRD, San Diego, 20 FEB 56. Finished boot shortly after the swamp fiasco at PI. That happened in May 56 and as I recall we graduated a week or so later. I do remember our DI's being "kinder and gentler" for about an hour after that, but then it was "same game girls". ROTFLMAO

SDI was S/Sgt Smith. A salty SOB that was trying to rebuild his legs after Korea, so ya gotta know what we did a lot of. LMAO

Was fortunate enough to be Honor Man, get a set of Dress Blues from the Leather Neck Assoc and promoted to PFC out of boot camp. Got this old Marine off to a good start in the Corps.
