Oh, how warm and wonderful is the fireplace, and the "welcome"..:))
I miss having a fireplace..:(

Zacs Mom, freema is a Marine Family Person, too, and in mail told me she just now located her father's Boot Camp Platoon photograph, dated March of 1952 - I was at Parris Island from 25 June 1952 on!!
Small world...

Fact is, the night before she announced that, I had been looking, coincidentally, for MY Platoon photograph, and some of those to whom I taught classroom subjects in their basic training...have looked for 4 1/2 years, and found them two nights ago in the bottom of a box I was searching for something else!!

Oh, the wonderful Memories of being on PI during
THE biggest buildup of Marines in their entire history...
PI was really hopping...

"and found them two nights ago in the bottom of a box I was searching for something else!!" ... lolol ... isn't that always the way it goes??!! I've been pulling together a bunch of old photos as well...I've got a project in mind and excited to see how it comes together.

Has freema posted the pics she found yet?
