Well, when my dad was a young guy in the Marines, he drove Chesty Puller around. He had a few stories to tell about those days.

That’s cool...When I was in 10th Grade, I was a member of my high school speech/debate club. We participated in a “Mock UN” and our school drew Grenada. This was the year right after the invasion, and our forensics coach, had a young Major named John Abizaid come give us a presentation on the miitary/politics of the island. He had participated in the invasion. Years later, he was my division commander at First ID.
