I just came across a picture from when I was in "A" school in Millington, Tenn. We trained on an A-4 Skyhawk. The picture was of our class before we left for our duty stations. Half Navy and Half Marines in the picture. We argued hard and partied hard, you know the Navy Marine thing. But one thing I remember well is that anyone from the outside said or did anything to either side it was on. We as a team were on them like stink on, well you know what I mean. Kind of like brothers and sisters, I can say what I want but you better not. It kind of reminds me of this group. From all walks and branches we have united together for the greater cause. We were tight even though we clowned each other, I had to be nice I might need a ride somewhere, just kidding Navy Navy Navy. That picture was a good reflection and fond memories. Semper Fi.
