Sgt Grit,
To continue my story, Fifty seven years ago I stood on the footprints at MCRD San Diego, seventeen years ago my son stood on those prints,five years ago one of my Grandsons took his turn,five weeks ago another Grandsoon had his turn. The ironic part of this is that all of us will have had their first duty station at 29 Palms, what are the odds? Needless to say am a very proud Marine,Marine father and Marine Grandfather.
