Dear Mr. or Ms. Paloma_55,
Col. Gregory Boyington, USMC is not the same person as actor Robert Conrad.
Just thought you'd like to know...
Guys,
Sorry for trying to add some levity to this string. Sometimes it just doesn't translate.
Having been a big fan of Baa Baa Black Sheep and the lead character (portrayed by Robert Conrad) I recognize and appreciate the heroism of Pappy Boyington.
In real life, I imagine Conrad couldn't carry Boyington's duffel bag, let alone his image.
I'm sorry if I offended you.
I appreciate what the Marine Corps has done. As a former squid, I worked with Marines and appreciate the esprit de corps.
Regards,
Paloma_55
