rgoper 0 #37 December 6, 2002 18 years in the U.S.M.C. (and never enlisted) my old man was in the military. i was up every morning at 05:00 hours trying my best to be a "squared away individual" and being addressed as "mister" by my dad as he was checking out my "quarters" he stayed in 22 years, and retired. but he was a marine until the day he died. (lung cancer...ciggarettes) i was born in san diego california, orange county general hospital while the "old man" was stationed at camp pendleton. he was perhaps the meanest sob i've ever met, or maybe i deserved it, i'll never know for sure. one thing i do know, he could drink a LOT.--Richard-- "We Will Not Be Shaken By Thugs, And Terroist" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
