Comments: My father entered Parris Island on July 20, 1951. His name is Joseph Socha. He was and is still from Philadelphia, PA. He does not recall his platoon number. Please contact me if you went through boot camp with him.
After Parris Island, he went to San Diego and then Korea.

It has been a long, long time but I would enjoy hearing from my Marine
"boots" all of whom survived "the asylum on the Island". 88 started out
and 67 graduated; in addition, we all went to CamPen for close combat
training w/ T & R Command, then onto Battalion FMF schools at Delmar.
From there most of PLtn #288 embarked for replacements to the 1st Marine
Division FMF in Korea. It took the USNS Gen. Miegs 21 days to get us to
Pusan, Korea.
Remember that dirty bucket the Miegs?? 12th replacement draft was put
on to "cattle trucks" thru that foul, smelly port city. Enroute to tent
city saw filthy Koreans urinating & defecating in front of their
cardboard hovels. Days later we were assigned to our various MOS and I
went to "A" Co. 1st Tank Bn with 4 others from #288.
With our hands full in that combat tour lost track of #288 boots. If
any of you are on the web, please feel free to say hello again.

Looking for the surviving members of Plt 69, MCRD Parris Island, SC
of 1949. A lot made the 1st Prov Mar Bgd.
Most went with the 1st Mar Div to Inchon. Most were only 18 years old.
Some were younger. Most made Chosin Reservoir. Please answer.
If you know a Marine who is now 65 or older and from east of the
Mississippi, He could have been in Plt 69 of 1949.
