I was a 4111 in the Marine Corps
"MOS 4100, Basic Marine Corps Exchange"
You got drafted by the MC and ended up in the PX? Gheeze, talk about skating.
Must have been in the late 50s - early 60s?

You dang right I skated!!! I made E5 in 21 months and never left the East Coast. I was a REMF to beat all REMFs! They knew a good man when they saw one! “;^)
1970 was the year. Well, I got drafted in ‘69 but didn’t go in until January of ‘70. Never actually worked in the PX. I was a bookkeeper/accountant @ Quantico. But not at the PX. I’ll explain it all to you some day.
Did spend about 13 years in the Field Artillery; first M114 and later M198. Battery B, 2/197th FA, NHARNG. Loved it. Especially the last couple years when I was an FO.
