Do you recall what you looked like before Recruit Training & then just a few months later after you graduated from Basic or Boot Training?? The change is amazing.

Well the before is from 1991, I did not have any from 1993 before I left. Just add about 50 pounds. I had to loose 60 lbs before I could ship.

I recall then Captain Al Grey telling me "We don't have Fat Marines in my Marine Corps so you had better get those in your unit in better shape or you will lose some stripes" I said "Aye Sir & got a Navy Corpsman to help me start a weight training program at the base gym for our so called "Fat Marines".....Years later I sent a letter to General Al Grey USMC Commandant & asked if he recalled threatening to bust me because of some Fat Marines in my unit?" He sent me a letter a few days later and said he sure did and he remembered me ..I framed his letter which I think was great of him to respond.

Sgt Tom Cunnally - I kept it off for 20 years. It got harder towards the end, but I did it.
