I'm Chuck Jackson I was with 6th Marines TOW Platoon, RAC platoon was made up of Marines out of the 6th Marine Regiment right before we were sent to Saudi around August of 1990 most of the Marines were Spanish speaking I figure for operations in South America they told us that sp[eaking spanish was a requirement for RAC. When we returned from the Gulf War Rac Platoon was assigned to our Company. I left 6th Marines and went 3rd SOTG III MEF at Camp Hanson Okinawa.

I WAS PART OF THE OTHER SMALL BOAT CO. THAT RAC BECAME PART OF. APRIL 22, 1993 THIS GROUP BECAME KNOWN AS SMALL CRAFT CO. AND WAS PUT IN THE BUILDINGS BY MOTOR T AND SOON TOOK UP THE AREA WHERE ARTILLERY WAS. I WAS PART OF THE ORIGINAL 13 MEMBERS THAT STARTED THE SMALL CRAFT CO. WITH THE 18FT.
