That is so true. It goes to show that you can never get the real feel until you get down in the dirt and experience it for your self. My uncle went to boot camp 4 years before I did. He told me all about the yellow footprints, the DI's screaming in your face and the instant culture shock you endure when you step aboard MCRD. I thought I would be good, my uncle gave me a heads up, I know what to expect. I was dead wrong! You have to live it before you can know it! That is what happened with the embedded reporters. It was one of the best ideas to come out of the Pentagon in a long time. Semper Fi
