I was in Boot Camp in San Diego in June 1964, Company 339. Those were the days. Still remember picking up Cigg, butts with a nail on the end of a stick. Once while at the mess hall a recruit got up from his tabel and got himself another glass of milk without asking permission. The CO made him stand next the milk machine and moo like a cow until mess call was over.

1977, Company 902 under Chief Petty Officer Belt, a Parachute Packer. I was the Education guy for the company. Being a little older (already went to college), I managed to get cut some slack as Belt could rely on me for some help. I remember the phrases "smoke 'em if you got 'em" for the smoke breaks and "cokin' and jokin' " for scuttlebutt. I started out here as an enlisted man and, after making it up to E-6, went to Officer Candidate School and got out as an O-3E. Fighting my first real fire was quite a trip! Then the fake wooden destroyer was cool too. After the first week or two, I actually enjoyed boot camp. Except for the food. Green eggs? What was up with that? And only a few minutes to eat it all.
