I had the dirty double, which is Leonardwood, Leonardwood.
Basic Training: Drill Sargeant Gatewood, seemed like a very intelligent guy, I got a few gems of knowledge out of him, I wish I had more time to learn from that guy. Advanced Individual: Drill Sergeant Mientz, Again seemed like a really smart guy, wish I had more time to learn from him. Last I heard was that he was moving out to my state AZ, It would be nice to buy that guy some coffee and ask him some questions. I wonder If any of our former instructors our AR15.com members, wouldn't that be weird? |

Quoted:
HA HA thanks for the laughs, he's good people. He was awesome, I wish I could have met him in a different environment so I could have asked him some questions. He did tell me once he wrote a book called "Gatewood's Army" where he explained the army's problems and how to fix them, but he said If i remember right that his ex-wife burnt it or she locked it in a safe and won't give it to him. He did some fucking awesome things, he caught a kid throwing a ziplock bag away and yelled at that kid for a good 30 minutes and then he explained to him how useful that bag was and how the kid was an asshat for throwing it away. And after that just to prove his point he used that bag for one thing or another every single day until I graduated. I talked to one of my friends who went in after me he said that he still had that bag and was using it to store weapon cleaning clothes. Edit: He also taught me something I think he called "The Rules of Patrolling" I remember them still they were I think 1.Communication/Control 2.Common Sense 3.Reconnaissance 4.Planning 5.Execution I've asked around to other soldiers and no one has ever heard of those, so I think it was something he made up and used on his class's |

I'll say that of course (after nearly 30 years) I remember the names, faces and voices of all of my Drill Instructors. However, none of them were stand out individuals. Pretty average guys, in my opinion. One struck me as particularly likable, under different circumstances. He had a great sense of humor and enjoyed his job immensely.

I was one of those shy kids that tried to fade into the background, but being the first name on the roster fucked that plan up. Thank God for the PLT assclowns though, we had more then a few, which made my time smooth sailing for the most part. |

Johnston DS Torres was short and used to like smacking you on the bottom of your chin with the brim of his hat trying to get you to flinch. He once said that he was destined to be a DS because his mother made him mean. He claimed that he got hit by a car when he was 7 or 8 and his mother beat his ass while he was laid out for playing in the street. |

Btw, was SSgt Jones a big country boy with a blonde flat top by any chance? 0861––Artillery Scout was his real job?? LOL, thanks for the memory. We started with the three SSGTs I mentioned above and by week 3 or 4 had some new DIs show up. They had not even graduated DI school yet, I'm assuming this was the case because they were wearing piss covers and not campaign covers. Any way the one we got was a real mess (as much of one as a Marine DI can be anyway). I don't know what this guy's problem was, what ever it is that makes a DI a DI he did not have it. The other three, when they walked on deck you could feel your pulse quickened, the new guy....not so much. The harder he tried, the more comical his antics were. It got so bad one day he completely lost his bearing, and began to just yell incoherent shit until he almost passed out. At that point the SDI stepped in and called him in to the DI hut and we never saw him again. The other two took charge and then it was really game on. Mt Suribachi, trips to the pit, monkey runs through the shower room, the whole nine yards. The rest of that day was pure hell and we deserved every minute of it. Then SGT Fulgum showed up, he was all business and meshed seamlessly with the other three. |
