Re: Eric Olafson, Fleet Cadet (GC VII) - Chapter 15: Italian Food - [StoriesOnline] FROM Gary j Zalewski TO You Hide Details FromGary j Zalewski    Vanessa Ravencroft   The Fly-Boys have always been overly fond of their little luxuries. Movie sets? I'd love to be able to work for one of the special effects outfits, they have & make SO many funnnn toys to play with. Back in my days I used to do a little teaching of improvised demo & boobytraps & loved using those skills to liven up field training exercises.

Of course...;-) we do things like that on movie sets all the time. But your e mail reminded me of the good old times..When I was in Quatanamo (before it became infamous) looking out the window of our Marine barracks with a ceiling fan that wasn't working and seeign the Air Force Barracks up the hill with individual officer accomodations...Full Air condition ...and saying to my friend....: In times like this I wonder if I made the right decission to join the Marines........(Hell yes..but a very weak Hell yes back then...;-)
