Although the Marine Corps like all the others have had to change...reception and boot camp are still a real wake up call. As always, the vast majority buck up and cross the grinder on graduation day. I WILL also find out what platoon he's going to and make sure I talk with his SDI. If he ends up in Mental Health.....my friends there will have his name. I'll make sure he crosses the parade deck when he supposed to...baring injury. Grad day and the day before, Visitors Day, are a big deal down here. I suggest that you and his mother get reservations way in advance. Every hotel/motel fills up here fast. I'll also steer you away from the flea bag ones so you have a pleasant stay.
