I was stationed at a Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego from 1965 to 1967.

What is your major malfunction?

I disagree with a lot of those changes, however at the end of the day - I go down to recruit graduation at least once or twice a year.

I honestly do feel that I am a role model for young people.

Drill instructors worked seven days a week, fifteen to seventeen hours a day in many cases, with no time off in between platoons.

Back in the old Corp, we weren't training those privates to infiltrate into the peacetime Marine Corp. We were training those privates to go to Vietnam.

We had times in '66 and '67 when we would pick up a platoon of privates out of the receiving barracks the week before we even graduated the platoon that we were on!
