I am truly honored to be chosen to live with the U.S. Marines for a week
at
Parris Island. The goal is to involve educators in the process of basic
training, to experience some of the rigors first hand, and to incorporate
that experience into respective curricula. Being the old fart that I am, I
will probably be finishing my first cup of coffee just in time to wake up
the boys. I'm sure they'll leave me behind quickly though, as it's been 30
years since I've been in an extreme physical training situation.
If any Marines (active or not) are here, I'd love to hear and incorporate
your experiences in my report.
If anyone here lives in the area, I'd be agreeable to meeting for a cold
one. Just email me (or share with the group).

that's the plan - if I can keep up!

Like Jax (but a few years later), I went to boot camp in San Diego.

If they are just starting boot camp you have a chance to keep up.
Lots of guys go into boot camp out of shape.

If they are in their 4th week of training, you are going to be in a
"World of Hurt". )
