      Congratulations Sir.
      In the realm of spirit, seek clarity; in the material world, seek utility.

          I was going to say, "like you wouldn't believe". But I guess you would.

            Congrats young Devil Pup.

            Years from now you will remember that day.

            Without any effort I can tell you that I graduated on 10 Nov (A birthday Platoon) 1981 from Platoon 2068. DIs were SSgt Meyers, Sgt Burton and Sgt Molar.

            Some things Jarheads just don't forget.

            So what MOS did you get?

                    Just remember the radio operators motto

                      Watch out for the Gunnery Sergeants.

                      I heard they're weird.

                            Thinking is overrated. Hell, you're a Colonel of Engineers, you think about latrines and slit trenches...:exit:
