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

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. ;-)

I would gladly travel south of the border and pay admission to see that.
I've got a grin on my face just thinking of it.

It's a bit confusing. We get regular PBS signal from Boston but our HD
signal comes from somewhere else

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!

****************************
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.

We used to cut up the recruiting bumper stickers that said:
"GO Navy"
and make
"Navy A Go Go"
for our cars....(c;....back in the 60's...

Has he just beaten up on other secretaries, or any real men?
