I believe all the History Channel requests is an email address - and you can chat with The Gunny - directly!

It's all on the link above...

I watched a movie the other night,"The Boys of Company C"circa 1967,he was in it,as a drill instructor.Very anti-military IMO.Long time ago,I know,I bet he regrets doing it.

It's repeating later tonight and several times this week. Getting into the details might be a bit boring for some but if your curious about the nuts and bolts of what went on over there in the gulf, it was a great show.
