I'm 68 years old 11 months 24 days,
I remember my plt. #2012...
the series was 2012....
my laundry number was #48...
my rifle number was 19595.....
our barracks was on the corner of Panama street just short of third Bn.......
my service # was 2479 _ _ _
like Mongoose I find it hard to believe someone forgets their grad date..
the day they hit the yellow footprints?

I started Aug.23,1968
and graduated Oct.30th 1968
and left the Island on my 19th birthday
via bus
to Lejeune.......
but unfortunately that is all I remember

I also do not remember my plt no. nor graduation date, I know my "date of entry" - it's on my dd214. Spent a lot money on booze and drugs to forget those years of my life. Problem is I forgot the things I should have remembered and remembered the things I wanted to forget, thus is life.
