Well, I guess we weren't.

I was at PI.

June-August 1978, MCRD Parris Island, SC., 1st Btn. (platoon 1024, if I recall). SSgt Myrick was the SDI and Sgt. Alwin and Sgt. Venenziano were the DIs. I can remember the day of Graduation after the ceremony. We were in the squadbay and my father (retired Marine and former DI) was talking to the SDI. The SDI called me over and asked me why I never told him my father was a Drill Instructor. I replied, Sir, the Private did not think it was such a good idea Sir. He said, You were right. We all had a good chuckle.
