SGTMAJUSMC

LEFT MY PERO(FLAT BOTTOM SWAMP BOAT) IN BAYOU RAPIDES, CROSS THE ROAD, COUGHT THE BUS, JOINED THE MARINE CORPS AT 17 AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. SPEEKING MOSTLY FRENCH CAJUN, IT WAS VERY HARD ON ME IN BOOTCAMP. BECAUSE OF MY RIFLE SCORES, THE MARINE CORPS MADE ME A SNIPER. I SPENT THREE YEARS IN VIETNAM WITHOUT GOING HOME. WAS UNLUCKY ENOUGH TO BECOME CARLOS HEDGECOCK'S SPOTTER. FOR A WHOLE YEARS I WAS TREATED LIKE I WAS A PERMANENT PRIVATE BUT IN THE END WHEN HE LEFT, HE PATTED MY ON THE BACK AND SAID "YOU WILL MAKE IT RIP (MY SARCATIC NICK NAME GIVEN TO ME BY HIM)". 38 YRS, HERE I AM.
