Boot Camp Together

I was in boot camp with Roger Inscore in 1966 at MCRD, San Diego. I didn't know Roger very well, we were a little busy and didn't have time to chat much. I did remember that he was from Huntington Beach, and I saw that he had been KIA in Viet Nam. I was lucky to get out of VN unhurt, but have a lot of feelings about why I lived and so many of my friends didn't. Danny Hogue
