This is the second book in the series of my life, and continues the strand of the making of a young man’s character. My story is not unique of course. Many others were going through the same things in military service and in that sense, it;s history. But I hope that many will be able to indentify with this story and enjoy the humor and the exciting adventures of a young man who truly enjoyed his time in the Marine Corps! Our outfit did not have to face direct combat duty as many have, and that of course made it far easier. My military experience was just a part of my life and formation. Our actions or reactions are in part a result of our previous life, but they also re-enforce or detract from what we will be in the future. I trust that this will be, not only interesting to read, but also a help in some way for others whether they serve in the military or not, to do their best and get the most out of life!
