All above were with me in 5th Marine FSCC

Best Moment
When Maj Cates chewed on the 5th Mar Sgt. Major for messing with his people without letting him know first. He then 'counseled' me on the proper handling of an angry Sgt Major by an angry Cpl.

   

Worst Moment
Telling 5th Marines HQ Co Sgt Major he didn't make it rain, when he jumped on some of the FSCC guys who had been on watch most of the night and were sleeping in. He was new and thought he'd run HQ Co just like in the states. I guess he didn't know we were 2/11 personnel attached to HQ Co.

Chain of Command
Maj Cates Bn Liason officer 2/11
Lt. Scott Bushnell USN
Lt. Harper Thomasson USN

Senior Radio Operator set up rosters etc for all radio guys
