Kaitlan: Nothing ever happened in the kitchen. After all, we were all gentlemen!
Frankie: Yes, I was, but I don’t talk about it.
Richie: No I’m not sorry. No need to say more about the kid thing. Anyone who reads this can take it anyway they want.
Thanks, all, for your comments.

Are you really sorry about the Army SNCO? I think you should have stressed the kid thing more. I was in the Grenada exercise and the kids were the ones who were scared the most. It took nothing for us to give them whatever we had. Not a lot, some chocolate, crackers, and cookies. But they loved it. Like you said, they hadn’t learned to hate us.

You made a point of saying that there were no combat stories. Is that because you weren’t in combat, don’t want to talk about it, or have written about them somewhere else?

I’m guessing that your comment about being a “young, horny, marine” had something to do with the fact that ther were a lot of sexual references in here. I agree with Kaitlan that I want to hear more.

OMG! I could write a paragraph commenting on each of your stories. I’ll settle for saying the surfing thing is the cutest, the orphanage the most memorable, and the Bulgarian thing as the scariest. Oh, what else went on in the kitchen?
Please tell me your going to post more memories like this.
