Description
As I continue to reflect upon our service in C1/6 2nd platoon, I am joined by two of my closest buddies from back in the day. Pudge, Rumpler and I were among a tight crew of individuals who shipped down to Parris Island in June of 1993, remained together throughout our schooling and the entirety of our time in Charlie Company 1/6, 2nd Platoon. Stripped of our civilian lives, we reflexively formed a surrogate family and leaned on one another to make it through times, both good and bad. These men are my brothers and it was an honor to have a conversation with them, 31 years after the fact. Topics discussed: - Motivation for joining the Corps - Boot camp memories - Notable experiences and Devildogs - Amtrak life - Remember when
