Hi fellow Marines

From Parris Island in June/Sept 1955, to IT at Camp LeJeune until Jan 56, to Air Prep School in Jacksonville, FL, to Memphis Naval Air Station in late 57, thence to Cherry Point. Spent 2½ years as Marine Guard in Karachi, Pakistan.

Wish to say hello and rehash old times with anyone with whom I crossed paths.

Semper Fi!
