Was your "summer camp" Parris Island? My dad was a DI there in the early 40's. When he was getting close to discharge they sent him there to finish out his tour. When I found that out in my late 20's it explained a lot of my childhood. lol [/QUOTE]Small world, eh ? Yes it was indeed a fine summer on Parris Island for me in 1974. My sister sang 'Billy Don't Be A Hero' from the time I enlisted until the day she dropped me off at the recruiting station to catch a ride to SC. Even today she will still sing it if the story comes up, LOL.
Is your Dad still with us ?
