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).
