  1. AS the saying goes

    When life hands you lemons……..

    Military people are the best at making lemonade!

  3. $10 a bets it’s the Lt’s car…
    Ten minutes after pictured Marines recommended he not try to go out for breakfast after PT….
    And a snide remarks similar to “Men when you have attended college you will learn such things as well.”
    Or…
    “An Officer’s judgment is never wrong.”

    I don’t know I am just guessing.

  5. At which point the Sergeant Major just smiled at the thought of that much mud on the course. I’ve done the Pendleton Mud Run, and that’s when it was freakin dry for the last month. To do that now would be pure suicide.

  7. Looks like amtrac weather. Hauling through the mud during the rainy season at Pendleton and laughing at mired tanks and LAVs was always fun. Good post, Dan.

  12. San Mateo is an area on Camp Pendleton, home of 5th Marines and 5th Combat Engineer Battalion (CEB). I almost didn’t recognize the place! I imagine that dry riverbed turned into a howling torrent, and if I recall correctly, more than a few buildings were almost on top of it. Wonder how the flightline made out, seeing as it practically floated away during the last major storm back in the ’90s.

  14. I stand corrected. Only been to Camp Pendleton a three occasions and spent more time watching my six than looking at street signs. Not many Army Aviators visit that place.
