Other Memories Ed graduated from MCRD, Platoon 3029. I have created this "Remembrance" profile for him since we both were in the same boot unit and graduated together. There were 75 men in Platoon 3029 that graduated and in checking each individual, it was determined that our Platoon 3029 lost just 3 men in Vietnam. Damn Good!
