| My Mom & Dad in summer 1945 at Parris Island, SC. Dad was
a combat experienced Sergeant Drill Instructor at MCRD Parris Island and
Mom was in Admin school. You can see the quanset hut office space
in the background. They met at a party at Elliott's Beach on Parris
Island. Modern day recruits probably remember Elliott's Beach (E-Beach)
as the place where they undergo the Gas Chamber training. |

This is Mom playfully trying on Dad's shirt. She was a PFC at
the time so she was probably somewhat impressed by the
sergeant stripes. |

Dad giving judo demonstration. Judo
was a skill he
learned with the Raiders - I believe that this
was
during the time he was a drill instructor at Parris
Island. |
