Best Moment Graduating Oct 1959
Worst Moment Getting off the bus at MCRDSD at o dark thirty and somebody yelling at us using words that I did not know belonged in the English language. All I (17 years old) could think of was what did I get myself into.
Started with Platoon 143 but while on Mess Duty I came down with blood poisoning and spent two weeks in the hospital. platoon 152 picked me up when I got out.

Other Memories Being called into the Duty Hut for talking in the chow line and getting the crap knocked out of me. Lesson learned don't talk in the chow line or if you do don't get caught. They called me Harpo after that.
