As my career developed, and I was given the opportunity to become a Marine Officer, I was pleased to meet others who had 'been on the duty' ...They were usually 'above their peers' more motivated, and squared away, and just seemed to be more sure of themselves. Their ability to act in a timely manner, their confidence, and decision making ability was always present. Among the most satisfying of my myriad duties as a Field Grade Officer, was sitting as a member of a Warrant Officer selection board. It was satisfying, but more nerve grinding than I ever imagined...The many records and applications of candidates reassured me of my pride in being a Marine and among so many outstanding people who bore the title. Bottom line here... nearly every candidate for selection to WO who had successfully completed a tour as a MSG was selected ...I would guess about 98%...some were just too lacking in other areas. I attribute my career success to my 'successful MSG tours'...1961-1964...I will always believe that we 'Plt 346'MCRD,San Diego, were destined to free the World of decadent Communism...by bullet or bayonet...Yep, we were 'bad'...but when I watch the Military Channel showing Marine Corps training, etc., I thank God that our Corps will live and thrive, and keep some SOB from dropping a mortar round on my grave...

Would love to hear from some of the Marines I've had the opportunity to serve alongside over the years. Am currently working in Overland Park, Kansas as a detective with the PD. Look forward to hearing from some of the 'old groups.' Isn't it funny how we sometimes bitched about things, but now we reflect on them as though they are treasures.

Though my future days may be numbered, I hold my past days as a Marine (061458-063188) very close to my heart..the Corps was my life, and remains so. I'm blessed that my bride of (now) forty years accepted that life and raised our sons to be solid citizens ... not Marines, but our youngest was recently promoted to CPO in the USCG, and our eldest is "some kind of big cheese" at a major manufacturing and producing company in Oregon. No "orange jump suits" among them ... Sorry to "gas on" ... just trying to find another Marine with whom I may have served. I realize that my "Detachment Mates" are approaching the age when this sort of contact isn't available/viable.
