Addition to post #18: What I didn’t realize at the time, but learned soon enough, is that battles are fought, fog or no fog and it was good training for us. No excuse, Sir was what we had to say when we failed the course.
One more addition to post #18: I know this is a Marine thread and I would like to say my Uncle was a Capt. of Marines in WWII. I don’t know why I joined the army instead of the Marines. No excuse, Sir!
