Joe Preston from Plt. 3039 MCRD San Diego

[YLDNDN6]

I am looking for Joe Preston, who I was in Boot Camp with. We were in Plt 3039 MCRD San Diego from April to July of '83. We got hit with gear guard one time while the platoon went to chow. When we got to chow, they were serving pork chops, and at some point, Joe got a big chunk of chop stuck in his airhole and started turning blue. I remember jumping up and giving him the heimlich maneuver and seeing that piece of pork chop sail over the table and onto the floor. I got reamed by every D.I. in the place for putting my hands on another private. Just wondering what may have become of him through the years. He was from Michigan, somewhere near Detroit, I believe. Anyone ever run into him from '83 on???
