Apparently he changed his mind. This wouldn’t have happened if he’d been on an island.

This isn’t the first time. When I was at MCRD SD in Jan of 1970 we boosted our first phase fatbody over the fence that bordered the main runways; for his good as well as ours. He was picked up by a cabbie who instead of taking him to a hotel, took him right back into the depot. At least he was out of our hair (as if we had any).

What is calling you to the actual runway to make you want to go out there?

The song of the Sirens.

Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego
This wouldn't have happened had he been at the real Marine Corps Recruit Depot - Parris Island.

I had a fellow recruit go UA on my Firewatch on Parris Island. I had to wake up the Senior Drill Instructor, and tell him what happened.

They found the guy and had him back in about 20 minutes.

Spent some time staring out at the run-way myself. Never once thought of climbing the fence though...

Had work to do.

Put his ass back into Receiving and let the next sequence pick him up.

Apparently not good Marine material. At least he ran before more taxpayer money was wasted on him.

Kind of funny, in a way. I remember during drill practice at MCRD in 1977 having a fantasy similar to what this guy did.

Anyone who's been to boot camp remembers the great lengths that some people took cuz they had a change of heart.
