@pgjackson As I heard it said by other Marines while I was out in the fleet, it has been called “Beautiful Beaufort by the Sea", at MAG-31?
Dryer sheets worked pretty good also. Rub one on you and keep it kind of hanging out of a pocket.
Yep. Beaufort is beautiful. They film a lot of movies out there. I was with MALS-31 for a year and was the Maintenance Control Officer for an F-18 squadron for almost three years. It was my first duty station.
I never served, long story .. however 2 of my uncles were mud Marines in WWII and between them fought in nearly every major campaign in the South Pacific , I was always in awe of them . My oldest cousin did two tours in Vietnam. I heard the stories not in great detail but enough to some what understand the depth of sacrifice they were willing to give and the toll it took . Thanks to all of you who served and God Bless!
Just awesome! Thanks for sharing!
That’s good to know. I appreciate the tip, I’m going to remember that the next time I’m in SC, Jeykell or St Simons Island!
Skin-so-Soft works the best, but the old dryer sheet is a good backup. Rub in on your arms, legs, head, shirt, pants...you seriously can't go outside without bug protection there.
My father was a part of the US Marine Corps detachment on the US New Jersey back in the 50’s. The Norfolk News took this picture of the Navy captain’s daughter looking up at dad standing guard. The pic had the caption, “What kind of sailor is this?” 😂
By the time I came along, dad had made sergeant and later when he told me to jump I’d not only say, “How high, sir?”, but also “Can I come down now, sir?!”
Later in life, he served as the chaplain of the local Marine Corps League in our home town and was dearly loved by all of his friends there. He was so missed when we lost him unexpectedly 13 years ago, the league made me an honorary member in his memory.
He was also a HUGE Dawg fan! He and I attended more than a few games together at Sanford. He was my best friend and I miss him everyday.
Semper Fi, Dad, and Go Dawgs!
Marines with a capital M!
Found this one, and it’s awesome!!!
GO DAWGS!!!
