When I was in it was called “stereo”. Now I guess they’d call it THX, LMAO!

That recruit looked like he had too much hair to me.

In our Platoon’s “Graduation Album” — my lip still showed the not fully split received about 11 weeks PRIOR to graduation....

Infraction?
My “Aye Aye Sir” wasn’t quite loud enough - and was interpreted to be an intentional insult... (It was)

In those days — “physical contact” was at the D.I.’s discretion..
Even after the tragic drowning event on P.I..

At MCRD San Diego in 1969, I made the mistake of asking the Platoon Commander for my job back (had been a squad leader and got relieved). The DI’s response was similar to this video, so there are lots of memories coming back.

A couple days later, the Platoon Commander reinstated me and I graduated boot camp as a PFC.

Semper Fi,
