Mind if I ask what year this was in?
I arrived at PI in June, 1946. Sent to college, fall '47. Arrived at Pensacola June 1949. Sounds like a very interesting story. It was a pretty standard story in those years, I think. Happened to lots of guys. Ya know , seems officers who served as enlisted first were better officers and leaders, and sure had the respect of their troops more. Maybe all officers should have to start as a private? I don't know. I knew some very fine officers, superiors to me who, so far as I know, had not been enlisted. Probably depends on the individual officer's character. vince norris
