Most of the bootnecks can be found on "Once a Marine, always a Marine" here http://civviestreet.proboards.com/index.cgi

No idea where the rest went, it is a shame though, it used to be a great site back in the day

can anyone help us out?, over on "Once a Marine Always a Marine" someone has posted a message looking for Gadge Clayton. Gadge was a PW1, a Sgt in the early 70s, went on to WO2 then the careers service we think.

As a point of fact it was Mr Warren that phoned me, and we spoke for about 20 minutes at pussers expense. What surprised me the most was his pro bootneck attitude (he did a long stint ...
