We also had a NTC recruit who thought your boot camp was too harsh and he jumped the fence, unfortunately into MCRD. That was one of our boot camp legends back in '68.

The guy I’m talking about actually was assigned to our platoon for a day, no legend. It was funny watching him get his backside ripped by our DI’s. We were near the end of the first phase, so they were on us every minute.

The legend when I first got to MCRD was the recruit who wrote home to his mother that the DI had punished another recruit by putting him in a Dempsey Dumpster and shot a flamethrower at him; that the mother had called her congressman and a big congressional investigation ensued.
Most of us didn’t believe that one.
