Company 584, August 1969. CC was Chief Gibson. It was so hot out on the grinder, guys were passing out. I remember sitting on a bench outside the barracks shining my shoes while watching the Marines run around a lot. They were building new barracks at that time, but they still put us in one of the old barracks. I remember playing Shuffleboard on the washracks with brushes and having to tie our laundry with square knots.

Hope someday to track down a copy of the Anchor 1966 Co. 473. Served 26 months on Admirals staff at COMCRUDESLANT Newport, RI and a year at MACV headquarters in Vietnam. Now dealing with hairy cell leukemia - Agent Orange. First diagnosed and treated in 2014 with a relapse in Oct. 2021.

Company 617,1967, October willie

I was in company 304 1972 San Diego California. I was the RCPO until I was replaced by another one. I was aboard the USS Jouett DLG -29 1972 after Boot camp and flew from Austin Texas back to Travis Air Force base after my 30 day leave . From Travis Air Force base we flew to the phillipines in a C 130 camouflaged Air plane . Over the phillipines from the window of the C130 I looked down and asked if that was Vietnam. I was told no, it’s PI. I did not know what PI was until I was stationed there in Subic bay US NAV Phil. I remember the long flight.

Nice company 107 from Feb to apr 1991

Company 052-86, CC MMC RB Burgos.

Firefighting school what fun. I recall a tower with a hose hanging down . The end was a brass nozzle form 2 in down to small. It would just Dance around like a wild thing, they would pick the smallest man out and say go get it. The first guy jumped up and was layed out Flat with a hit to the head. The rifle Range was so much fun . While in the Butt's the other guy and I were talking , I didn't have my foot on the bar . Some PO 1 walked up beheind me and hit me in the head with a 2x4 told me to get my foot on the bar. I'm glad that I had on the steel pot. So does anyone else recall the Black Aiguillettes and Black Flag day's. Company 209 1971 .

I really hated those boondocker's hurt my feet so bad . I was gald to become a Seabee and get some real boot's. !2 week in NTC S.D. then over to C.B.C. Port Hueneme for 14 week's of A school . I would do it again in a heartbeat.

My dad was in Company 113 March 1962. 21 year career; retired at Andrew's AFB. He passed last year, 2020. Thinking of him and watching these videos. Fair winds and following seas...

Company 63-413,Sept-Dec. 1963.Chief Ira Jones,Company commander.

What happened to the 96 count manual?? Nowhere can I find it.

06Oct - 22Dec 1969. Company 664. CC: UTCS A.V. Herrick. Good memories. Good Lord, almost 51 years ago. Still have my "The Anchor." Left RTC and on to Corry Field, Pensacola, FL for A and C schools.

Company 640 November 1964. A lot of memories of USNTC San Diego. Retired in 1988 as Senior Chief Dental Technician.

NTC San Diego have a special place in my heart. I was in Company 640 1964 as an 18 year old recruit. Deployed to Vietnam in the summer of 1965.

I've posted before here, Co 406 - 1972, CC BW Smith EO1, replaced by an entirely forgettable BMC, I believe. As I said, forgettable. Would love to hear stories about this time. We were met at the airport by those leaving after graduation. In the group leaving was a red head who gave us newbies a talk. He basically told us that we would think about going over the fence, and he told us that we should think about it to occupy our time. Haha, but then he told us, "But don't do it, just think about it." Haha, it was a creative use of the downtime in my head. During service week, I was outside the chowhall on the RTC side, policing the trash, when a guy with guy with white shoes ran by. This meant he was being discharged. I couldn't help but wonder so I asked him about it. He told me bluntly that he told them he was gay. Okayyyyy...I got more honesty than I was looking for. Then he quickly added, "Yea, they didn't even check, I'M MARRIED. I just wanted out of here." Then he ran off. It was a sign of the times, I suppose.

Company 217, Div 6, Sept - Nov 1988 (Josie Harrison)

Great video. Stirs very fond and deep memories. Company 334 1972. Sad to see it all gone now.

Company 322 Dec 12th 1977

1953 company 117...my grandfather was in that company. Anyone know anything about that company?

My grandfather was in Company 117 in 1953. I cant find anything about his company at all. Any help out there would be nice...thanks

04DEC74 was my first day :-)

1 July 1982 through first half of September I believe. Division 6 Company 104, ABFC Millendez was our CO. I was RCPO, Sam Bars was the RPO1. burned the hell out of my ears all summer marching and standing in the sun. No Leave after bootcamp, right across the street to Fleet ASW Training Center, Pacific. I love San Diego, hate to see that training center gone and now it's all at Great Mistakes.

Company 417 1963, graduated December 5th, Kennedy had just been assassinated. Sad day

1983 company 165, we get f--ked over every time

Was there from Feb to May 1971. It was 13 weeks at the time. Fond memories of my company getting dinged in the middle of the night and having to carry our bunks around the tables in the middle of our barracks. Also spent 4 hours at the 4050 company when I didn't return from our first liberty on time for muster (it was an overnight liberty, I think). Went in a boy, came out a man. I'll never forget my time there or in the Navy. I miss the camaraderie. Where else can you make friends with someone that may save your life or you there's?

Ahh, the memories. I went in in Oct 1967, Company 621. Company Commander was Chief Fuhr. We were his last company before he retired. We were standing on the 'grinder' when it snowed for the first time in years. I remember the USS Never Sail, lugging those 9 plus pound M-1 Garand's during the never ending marching. I am 70 years old and can still march if I had to. I can also still do the 16 count manual. I still have my Blue Jacket Manual and, believe it or not, i still have one of my original white hats. One of my least fond memories was doing our laundry on those concrete wash tables out behind the barracks with scrub brushes and a bottle of Wisk. I also hated having to tie my clothes to the line with those damned string stays. We had 3 guys screw up really bad in our company and they left, only to be seen a few days later in the 40/50 detail. If you listened real close, late at night, you could hear the Marines training at MCRD, even though it was a couple miles away. We definitely had it easier than they did.

Nothing left of San Diego NTC. All a bunch of fucking condos now. Terrible.

Company 647, 1969. CC Signalman Chief Eubanks. What an asshole.

Company 222 (Oct to Dec 1984)

Company 908, 1971. I learned to appreciate a lot of things kids today take for granted.......sleeping BETWEEN sheets, walking on the sidewalk, not wasting food....you get it. Never forget shipboard firefighting...EVER!!

Company 190...'The swift, silent and deadly' was our company flag. July to September 1977. Of course, who remembers that we first spent the first two weeks on 'worm island' and then we packed our sea bags and 'marched across the bridge'.... We felt like real 'recruits then! After graduation, went to ABH 'A' School in Lakehurst N.J. then off to US Naval Station MIDWAY Island, then to the Kitty Hawk in Coronado.

25 Oct - 23 Dec 1982. Div. 6 Co. 201. EMCM Fonner. Never have I had so many fond memories from some place I hated so bad. I hated A-school worse. Funny thing. Navy life got better as my attitude improved.
