I was always told that boot camp was "much harder back in the day," but I never experienced anything close to these shenanigans when I went through. Where did those instruments come from? Cigarettes - REALLY??? Good on 'em...
Marine Corps Recruit Depot, South Carolina - 1940's: Marine recruits sing and play instruments during boot camp. Is it just me or are these Cats boppin'?

lol I bet my husband would've loved to have gone through boot camp like that!
ReplyDeleteAlthough, my friend in the Navy said he snuck his laptop in and they used to watch movies at night.
Ha! I think we all would have loved that.
ReplyDeleteGeeze, you couldn't even sneak a piece of gum into Marine Corps boot camp when I went through. As a recruiter, my guys visited me afterward and told me about cameras and other small items they were able to sneak in - not sure how they did that.
Cheers!!
Excellent !
