Navy boot camp in sound and pictures... Millions of men went through Recruit Training Command, Naval Training Center, San Diego, California, from 1923 until 1997, when the base was closed. Jostens, Inc., produced and Rainbo Records manufactured this featured recording, which was combined with images from Jostens' boot camp memory book called "The Anchor," from the 1960s and '70s.

I had no idea the Base was closed in 1997, Is Great Lakes the only recruit training center now?
