If you were a SEAL, I was a Marine 0331.

Great to meet a Marine 0331, whatever that is.

BUD/S class 105, 1979. Creds by freepmail if you would like, then you can tell me about recon school.

I wasn't in Recon. God no. USMC MOS 0331 is 'infantry machinegunner'.

Specifically, I was in a heavy weapons platoon, headquarters company. A REMF, truck-riding, hot showering, chow hall commando who had bunkers made for us by engineers with heavy equipment while we read comic books.

Spent most of my time trying to get transferred to the air wing to be a long-haired, CH46-riding, apartment-living, aerial-machinegunning, NCO-club commando.

Had a *few* hard days, though.
