Summary of Eugene H. Peterson's Still a PFC

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I graduated from South Shore high school in 1942. I joined the Marines in July 1942. The train ride to San Diego, California, was impressive. We passed under miles of the fake city above us, which was prepared for a Japanese attack.

#2 I was among individuals ready to fight to defend Robert E. Lee. I was not prepared for the harshness of the Marine Corps boot camp, which involved endless marching, medical shots, and short periods of recreation called organized grab ass.

#3 I had a difficult morning session with the base dentist, and I was eager to vent my anger on someone. I asked the Marine who had boxed me if he had any idea where Wetterquist had learned to box. He said he was the state of Illinois lightweight champ.

#4 I learned to fire my 1903 Springfield Rifle Caliber 30 serial number 384384. The accuracy of this rifle was amazing. I could score possible at 500 yards in prone position.
