Jimh... you watching the documentary on the Paris Island Boot camp on
PBS. It started at 2100 ADT here.

It is not being aired by either PBS channel here.

Thanks for heads up Don. I will keep my eyes open for it with future
broadcasts here.

Our cable military channel has had several shows on the USMC boot camp. I
am also about to read James Woulfe's book "Into the Crusible".

We received another letter from our son today. He remains upbeat and is
looking forward to seeing us on Family Day (11-8) and graduation (11-9)
then chilling at home for atleast 10 days. He volunteered for recruiting
assistance during his leave which will keep him at home another 2 weeks.

He cannot wait for a perch fry upon his return!

Thanks for keeping my recruit in mind Don!

BTW: My son (19 years old) is actually loving boot camp and has done well
in all PT exercises, including Pugil Sticks. I would bet that he could
knock out a couple of the older confrontational aholes here within a minute,
including some non boaters who hide behind silly handles. Although it might
take a bit longer, I would guess my daughter could do the same. ;-)

Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from "Jim Hertvik",
a frequent rec.boats poster, and if you count them up, you will see how
little he adds here in boating/fishing content or interesting reading.

People don't get knocked out with pugil sticks. They *do* get stuck with
bayonets.
