What year/base did you go through bootcamp?

USN Great Lakes Camp Dewey Last company through before demolition (good riddance) March and April 1961. Rain/snow every day, windy and cold, inside barracks, not much better.
 
My dad did his Boot in San Diego in '51. He was a career Marine (22yrs active, 5yrs reserve). Passed Dec.9,2005. I was born to the Corps, Jan. 22 1958 at Beaufort Naval Hospital. My 2 Nephews did their Boot at Parris Island '98 & '01 if I remember correctly. We are a Marine Corps family although I never served myself, except for the 18yrs I did with my dad before I got a job and Moved out. I miss him everyday, and We Proudly Display the the US Marine Corps Flag in front of our house. "Ooh Rah"
