But seriously, maybe I didn't share enough for a banner?
Was stationed in 29 palms, with 2/7.
Did the 31st (dirty-worst) MEU, humbled the US army, and made a bunch of Aussie friends. Spent a couple weeks in what was then a combat zone in the Philippines. Conducted some operations with the Filipino Marines, captured a MILF key leader. (Yes, we were after the MILF)
Did the work up for Afghanistan, and Mojave Viper right before I was getting out. Helped train a bunch of young Marines for combat, out of which there were zero KIAs, so I call that a win.
The 41 suicides that followed were the real loss.
Semper fuh.
