Ken, it was awful nice to get out of Boot Camp wasn't it?
Our Co. Commander had just returned from Vietnam about 6 months prior to being stationed at Great Lakes as a "Boot Pusher" on a tour on the USS Oklahoma City, a Cruiser that was on the line for gunfire support.
Of course he was telling us all kinds of horror stories.lol
We all felt like King Kong when we got out of that place.
You could never get enough sleep in Boot Camp!
They really pushed us.
