To: Drumbo; Kathy in Alaska

Thank you for typing all that out, and to Kathy for posting the patch. Huge thanks to Mstr Gunny Drumbo for his service.

I was home from Lejeune on Christmas leave when the rare snow storm landed on the base. Well, to many areas, an inch or two of the stuff is nothing, but Jacksonville was snowed in. A fellow in my company who served lonely vehicle patrol duty during the holiday spoke of pulling - or trying to pull - idiots out of ditches who had their brakes locked down.

This was December of ‘89.

Good morning Titan Magroyne

Yeah, I suspect that many in the south who are not used to snow would have a problem driving in it...after all we have those even around D.C. LOL
