If I neer saw his face or heard his voice, I would not it's him because he usually has Ho Hos and Twinkies in the ammo box.

i was in an ONTOS platoon (anti-tank) in Viet Nam. The crew MOSs were 0351 and we called the vehicles Pigs. My how things change.

Semper Fi! for your boy OP.

God bless your son. Mine is currently in boot camp with 9 more weeks to go. I miss him a lot, but at the same time, I'm very proud of him.

He'll come back lean and hard. I couldn't believe the transformation. Good on him and thanks for HIS service.

Looks like Range 10. I really hated running there, hot humid and you would still be sweating 3 hours after p.t.. I did 4 UDP’s to Camp Schwab, I assume LAR is still part of CAB?
