"I can imagine a no more rewarding career. And any man who may be asked in
this century what he did to make his life worth while, I think can respond with a
good deal of pride and satisfaction: 'I served in the United States Navy.'"

Hey there 8451.I just discovered this location.I joined the in 1968.Just in tine for Nam post TET.They cut boot camp at PI from 16 weeks to 12 weeks on during the train ride dawn from Boston and after we arrived they cut it again from 12 to 8 weeks.Sounds good on the surface but we were informed that they cut boot camp time to fill the Marine Corps. Voids in Nam due to the TET Offensive.Not Good but I digress.Because of your MOS I thought that I'd mention that Gunny Hathcock was a freind of mine.In fact he and his wife Joe(Josephine) styed up here for a few days to attend the Marine Corps. birthday celebration hosted by the Marine Corp. Old Guard in 1991.Never knew that he so famous.He was really quite a regular guy.
Semper Fi.
 
Hello devilbones,
I was at Camp Hanson in 1970 after they pulled the Third Marine Division out of Nam.They sent the entire division there by boat.The Navy converted a aircraft carrier to a troop carrier.Is Kin Village still there?
