Camp Pendelton was just up the road and ITR wasn't as bad as boot camp.
Did you get located at Horno like I was? It lived up to its name - LOL
I remember climbing "Old smokey" in the sun and ran down it in the rain.

Maybe we crossed paths - I was there near the end of 1965.

I spent 2 weeks at camp Onofre and 2 weeks at camp Horno.
It should be no surprise that camp Horno was the worst. I remember one of those had a swimming pool.

When you said you were stationed in Hawaii, I thought you might have been an MP.

We had two MP's from my bootcamp platoon. One went to Hawaii and the other went to a place called Tullee Greenland. - LOL
