Dad was in during WWII and again for Korea. I remember his stories about his experiences. So, four days after high school graduation, I was standing in my briefs at the Albany (New York) Recruit Processing Station for physical exam. They shipped several of us to the Recruit Training Center at Great Lakes that evening in June of 1961. It did make for a rewarding career after all.

I remember when we had classes outside, this kid had a habit of falling asleep when we were sitting in the bleachers. The instructor woke him up made him hold a tear Gas Grenade and pulled the pin. He said fall asleep now numb nuts. The marines on both sides of him made sure he stayed awake.

I turned 19 while in basic training. Not one friggin' candle! lol 4-A-1-1 We wore the quarantine meningitis tags on our uniform. They did let us go home for Xmas but back to finish up. Good thing... I apparently broke my foot on a night march--- saw an AF doctor who didn't bother to xray and found out earlier this year that I had broken it at some point. That respite allowed me to finish basic without a cast or recycle. Afterwords, flew to Boston via DC Dulles for about 9 months of training at Ft. Devens.
