no matter how long ago you go through boot camp watching this brings back memories of boot camp. I went through in 1960 and stayed for retirement. SEMPER FI Marines
Family day is always a great day. Parents see the transformation of their child. It was a great day for me as Mom (RIP) came by bus all the way from Los Angeles since we didn't have a car.
God bless each and every one of y'all thank you for serving our country and God bless your family too always please please be safe and forever and forever have faith believe and trust in God 💯🤴🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It is interesting how many of the DIs and SDIs were from Detroit, MI. I completed boot camp at Parris Island on January 30, 2009 (1st Battalion, Company B, Platoon 1010). We were in that same building on Family Day. I'm from Indiana, but I lived in a suburb of Detroit for over 5 years. It's great to see Detroiters doing big things in the USMC! Semper Fi!
THAT gave me chills! My son is an Air Force Staff Sergeant. I remember going to see him graduate from boot camp in Texas. I remain a PROUD Air Force mom. God Bless America, for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. God Bless them, and us, every one.
Graduated Nov 1983 from San Diego. I still remember my family day as the Sunday before graduation. I was happy as hell going to a bowling alley for a "burger meal" and rolling a few games paid by our book of chits. The meal hit me like a train from no junk food in my system. I paid for the soda still burping after we reassembled that afternoon.
God Bless our MARINES and families, Thank you all for your HONOR Integrity and keeping USA safe, Love you all & Grateful for all your Service and 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤💙🇺🇸💯
