[2nd Bn, 11th Mar]

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.

no sweat gear and poncho, rifle above the head little 5 mile jog to freshen up.

Then getting to the serious PT.

I just kept my mouth shut, didn't worry cause there is always somebody that is going to "get it"... I took my turn with everybody else.

We were all turds....

What you didn't want was to be somebody's "favorite" turd...bwahahahahaha or sh#t bird.
