Welcome To Yellow Footprints

Yellow foot prints, where the journey began, where the rest of your life will be changed forever. Yellow footprint is a historical data resource center with information that starts with boot camp, and ends with a Marines final duty station. WHY this web site when there are so many Marine sites on the Internet today. Although there are many great Marine Corps websites on the net, there are none like this site and the content it provides. Yellow Foot Prints is about historical information, information not found within the Marine Corps archives, and certainly information not found on the Internet in a searchable database. Although Yellow Foot Prints has many databases, none are as important as our Boot Camp graduation database, or the Obituary database.

Boot Camp Database:

The boot camp database is the only searchable database on the Internet today! It starts from the late 1930's and continues through the present day. It covers both Parris Island and San Diego with listings of location, platoon numbers, recruit names, and rank at graduation where available. When available, graduation books are scanned and copied into the database that include Drill Instructor page as well as recruit photos. Another feature of this database is the ability of members to post their scanned pictures from their time in the Corps within the members gallery area of the database. The new email feature is the addition of email addresses that can now be added to the boot camp database within each platoon section. Add your email address for ease of contact by your fellow recruits. One very unique entry is platoon 2060 that graduated in 1957, that would be Lee Harvey Oswald's platoon. .

Obituary database:

The Obituary database is also searchable, and contains entries that include but are not limited to Arlington National Cemetery, The Wall, and KIA from Iraq that includes Desert Storm, and past wars as Korea, and Vietnam. This is an active database that even members can enter information about loved one's, or brother Marines.

Attention on deck,

We have had a number of request about where to send donated books for our archived book collection here at Yellowfootprints. For those wanting to donate books, you can send them to;
Yellow Footprints
PO Box 341
Orangevale, Ca 95662
Please note when sending these books that they are for the Yellow Footprints archive book collection.

If you are searching for a platoon book or platoon picture the first place you should start is to make use of the boot camp database updates forum thread. This is an area where you can post those books and pictures request your searching for. The best way to start is to list in the heading of your thread information that our search engine will key on.
As an example: PI, 1958, July, platoon 265
Any thread heading of this type will them pop up when someone performs a search of said platoon.

If you still need additional help and you do reach out to Nancy please provide as much information as you can to make her mission easier to accomplish.


For you new visitors (you notice I didn't say members) you can have your platoon sections as well as a personal section created in the boot camp database whether your a member or not. We do not require you to become a member to add your historical information to this great database. If you have any questions or comments you can reach out to any of the administrators, or me at gmiller@yellowfootprints.com


Carry On Marines!!
