Now that was the hard one to recite back then!

And yellow footprints? That brings back the memory of getting off that bus on a hot July night in Buford, SC...BEST worst day of my life.

Oh, and through my time in the Corps, I don't think I ever ran across that mythical Field Officer of the Day listed above...did we have a Field Officer of the Day in the fleet?
