A Boot Camp Tale

A Boot Camp Tale

Sarge,

I ran across the attached while thumbing through some old mementos of my time in The Crotch. My fiance (later to become my wife) sent this to me some time after I graduated from Parris Island.

I thought it might give you a laugh. The fact that the principles lived in Oklahoma City is an uncanny coincidence.

P.S.

I had the opportunity to visit PI a few weeks back. I got the grand tour by a full Bird Colonel. Boy, has that place changed.  

I also got a chance to see the museum at Quantico. It's a "must see" for all Marines. Unfortunately, I was unable to spend enough time there. I will have to get back when I can spend at least a full day.
