I was at Ft.Ord in 1961, that’s when I spent a couple of weeks at Camp Robrets.

I understand completely. I was at Ft. Jackson in mid January and the windows would never fully seal. We even got snow there that winter and the snow blew in and drifted inside the barracks. The windows would even just “drop” open intermittently. The good thing was that the DI’s actually let us use our “walkmans” as a way to distract us from the cold....that is also when I learned how functional the sleeping bags actually were!

Hooorahh!
