The buildings and dress may have changed with the USMC recruit training, but
the traditions endure, including how they train and shape our young men and

Those guys were my contemporaries. I had been in the Navy 3 1/2 years
then but still wasn't 21.
I got out about 1/2 year later, and went on with my life, work,
family.
Many of those guys went to Nam and it all ended there for them.
God bless them.
