You Can Shock People Just by Telling the Truth
I want to tell you a story about something that happened in 1979, an event where telling the truth shocked everyone involved. I was stationed at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego, California. I was an administrative staff member of Casual Company, where recruits who couldn't make it through basic training ended up until they were processed for discharge. It was also a holding company for transient personnel as well as for personnel who were undergoing treatment at the alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Miramar, California.
