    As an experiment, Camp Pendleton paid its 26 thousand marines last Friday instead of Thursday and the result was a very slow weekend in Oceanside. Action newsman Gene Gleeson has details.

    I was there in 75. Stationed at 53 area dispensary. Had an apartment at 306 So. Pacific. One of those theaters there always played Bruce Lee films. It was the best duty ever. Fished from the pier and ate at Ruby's. Sad to hear about the fire. Hope they rebuild. I remember surfing on Christmas Day there also.

    I was the "Pizza Man" on southern Pendleton from '91-2000 and have been all over that base in that capacity. It was a joy feeding hungry Marines and having my own "business". I miss those guys.

      @@thebigbacon No way! What barracks were you in? I was usually all over Las Pulgas and 41 area which was mostly 5/11 Marines, I believe. Some times I made it up to SOI and Horno, but I usually just stayed at the southern half. I have many great memories doing that. Nowadays, a civilian walking around the barracks with a huge styrofoam box is probably frowned upon, post 9/11.

    Hill street in oceanside when I was young oceanside was the worst place to walk alone because of the marines and the hookers they had an xxx rated theater I lived in Carlsbad I grew up their I never thought I would leave but you get married and you have children you need a safe places for them so that’s why we moved but now everything is so different my high school looks like a jail were we used to hang out in the beach the parking is different they changed it to a fancy Temecula that all my childhood memories and places I grew up and played are all gone or remodeled? What a shame 😮😢🫣🫢🍷🍷
