I'm still happy I was a jarhead. Wouldn't change a thing about my enlistment, especially not the two deployments. The experience helped shape the man I am today, and I'm eternally grateful for that because I'm as awesome as I am good looking! HA!

Oh that? Nah, doc told me to drink some water and walk it off. I did and I'm perfectly fine. Those corpsmen (corps-people? Gotta serve the PC gods) really know their chit!

The "Material" they're using in the attempt
to make U S Marines is not what it used to be.
the younger generation may be better educated.
but Mothers of America and Crybabies abound.
Things have changed my friends / things have

My DI's never had nightmares about us......we had nightmares about them. They could break your ( I won't give up attitude, at will ). Also, we wasn't allowed to be Gung-Ho because we wasn't Marines yet. You must have been in the Peace Corps, not the Marine Corps.

Hey Billy, you ever get that answer to your question about units in Cpen in 69?

NO....I know the 27th Marines left Nam in 68. Those with 6 or more months left were assigned to other units. The rest....the short timers were sent back and the 27th was deactivated in June of 69.

I met our Heavy on my second trip to Okinawa. We went out for dinner and drinks a couple of times. He was a SSgt then and I was a Sgt. Really nice guy when he wasn't wearing the Hat. We were his last platoon so he remembered quite a bit about us and had some interesting stories to tell.
