Chesty Puller was the most decorated Marine ever....c'mon Beelz....At the Frozen Chosen he was completely surrounded and said something to the effect "we're surrounded, that simplifies our problems..." & "retreat hell, we're just advancing in a different direction"
He wanted to go to Vietnam in 66, but they told him he was too damn old..(where have I heard that before)
One battle he took 70 casualties and killed 1400 japs. He was definitely "THE MAN" - 12-27-2005, 07:15 PM

yup, ya'll are right, i'm confusing names in my head.
those BST tests didn't stick around too long in the ol' brain cells, lol. - 12-27-2005, 07:25 PM
Totally understandable since I only remember like 2 names out of all the others. We don't even take the BST for real anymore....there's always a "study sheet" when you take it.

ahha, i remember now, i was thinking smedley butler, lol.
study sheets? yup, the ol' S-3 shops never change - 12-28-2005, 12:51 PM
what up Devils!??? Just found this thread! BST's? I thought they were MCI's? I missed Cpl my 1st time around because I didn't do my personal finance course on time..
Archibald Delta, that's hilarious!!
I remember back in Jan 93 when I left Michigan for boot camp. Ice storm w/ sub-zero temps. I get to San Diego the next day & it's sunny & I'm surrounded by DI's & palm trees... Dudes, I was in heaven!!! All I was looking forward to was graduating boot camp & learning how to surf!!got done w/ boot, went north to Camp Del Mar for 3 months of admin school (learned how to surf!!!) & got stationed @ MCRD San Diego!! Did my 4 years all in San Diego County.. Sucked to be me..
I do miss it though, & Beelz, thanks for that initial night before Christmas. I have it on my computer @ home & read it often...

MCI's were the things we had to order through the S-3 shop. BST was the basic skills training book.
oh, and nate, yeah, i got accused of that numerous times
