The San Diego Padres always wear camaflouge uniforms at Sunday home games. Its called “salute the military day.”
They also have a company of Marine Corps recruits from MCRD in attendance at the Sunday games. I hope the Padres don’t get in trouble for this.

Twenty six years ago, when I was at the tender age of 23, I attended a Padres game on a fine Sunday afternoon along with my fellow Marine recruits of Platoon 3075 (as well as the other Platoons in our Series). It was a rare treat for us in Boot Camp that I will always remember.

Love The Padres for that.

What's next? Ban the pink and blue bats and wristbands on Mothers' Day and Fathers' Day?
