Thankfully, Parris Island is a swampy island and not apt to be coveted..:)))

It, too, is hallowed ground, Cobby, and I'm glad it will remain just as you remember it, for generations to come to 'enjoy!' - - LOL

"I'm glad it will remain just as you remember it, for generations to come to 'enjoy!'"

Yeah, I told the recruiter that my grandson was going to follow his grandad, but he wouldn't be able to go through MCRD if it was sold off.
When he told me it wasn't going to be sold off, I silently thanked God that Blake was going to be able to "enjoy" the hundred mile blacktop grinder, the heat and humidity, the wonderful three minute S,S,and S sessions, the sand in every pore of his body, the relaxing obstacle course, the steaks in the mess hall that took a good Stihl chainsaw to cut, the skullery, and all the rest that makes life interesting.
I hope they don't change a darn thing!!
