Dad shared a few stories from his time in basic training this evening…
He told of how he, and a few of his other trainees, had never seen the beach. So, they made a sojourn out to a beach in Wilmington, DE.

Stayed at a YMCA. Woke up sleeping next to a marine. Apparently, back then, people used to share beds.

One of his buddies from Scranton got a bad sunburn and had to jump the next day. (Yikes!)
