Dang it! Things never change. I'm trying to get drunk and now I have to check in on a Friday night.

Me too..and Squirt ain't coming back it would appear. Wanna go and sneak a smoke in the MCRD dumpster? The DI's are singing in their quonset hut, so we might just pull it off.....

Here!

[AngrySpud]

Can an FMF corpsman drop in?

[kellynla]

Okay, here I am. Where's squirt? He requests us to check in and then he checks out. I have a cold beer and a hot lady waiting so I will request permission to leave.

(I hate hijacking threads, but Squirt must have hit and run....) Corpsmen are of course most welcome; once you don the green, having shed those side-zippered white bell bottoms, you become a brother.

Personal note - really looking forward to Memorial Day ceremony at the Coachella Cemetery. I'm hopeful that Mitchell Paige ( age 84...CMH from Guadalcanal) will be there. He's a local resident and happily still in decent health.

Thanks; I served with Marines three times. Each time I went Marine Corps Regs. When I retired in '96 I wrote HQMC to ask if I could still wear them at appropriate times. They couldn't find any precedent for the request, and said it'd be just fine.

I've never looked back on my naval career with any particular fondness, EXCEPT for the years I was with Marines ... I love you guys. You took care of me.
