End of May, last year.
I'm a Corpsman(reserve) here in NY. Just went down in Jan for Dutch Bilat 2001 with 2nd Batt 25th Marines.

I met a corpsman from 2/25 on the Camp Pendelton shuttle last August. I'm in Golf Company 2/24.
Worked hard, played hard. Make it to the Mambo Beach Club? See an Antillian Boat Raid? What a f***ing BLAST!

Yeah, those Dutch Marines really know how to party. Did you go through the Dutch Marine initiation? It's where they fill a kevlar full of beer and you have to drink it in 28 minutes. Doesn't sound hard, but they pour in another beer every minute!!! [beer]
Yeah, I did make it to Mambo Beach. I even got two hot chicks that worked at the bar to make out! I'll post pics of that when I can.
It was probably the coolest A.T. EVER!!! We got a 72 libo and the Dutch Marines wanted to give us even MORE, but our CO said, "NO. We came here to train." [rolleyes]
What their Mach? And weren't you in a patrol "harbor"?

Yeah, yeah - we're sloppy with our "lingo."
We call them both.
Semper Fi, my squid friend!
