There was a girl who wore Navy blues and a boy who wore Marine honor. This girl was fresh out of bootcamp and ready for the adventure of a lifetime, eager to see the world and keep it safe. One day after a trip into town she walked through the gates of the Naval base and found a very dapper, respectful and most handsome young Marine manning the gate for duty. He found himself at a loss for words at the sight of her. He would later recall his fellow Marine encouraged him to say something kind to the young lady approaching the gate. The young Marine did just that. He introduced himself and made small talk with the young lady. The young lady was smitten by his bashfulness. She thought it was such a contrast to the image that she had of Marines in general, strict, serious, and not at all approachable. This Marine was serious but kind and respectful. She also thought he had the cutest smile and sexiest sounding voice. They agreed to exchange barracks info. (Reader you must realize this was early 80’s and there were no cell phones, pagers, or social media. So the two agreed to stay in touch the best way they knew how.)
