Now you have me wondering who you are :confused: I've been at ACU-5 since 1992 so i'm sure i either know you, or would recognize your name.

GSM2 DeArmon, Det. Alpha.

Used to run around (drinkin' and shootin') with Rob Molder, Terry Ruddy (GSE2), and Don Little (BM1).

Was on 43 boat, picked up 14 boat from Trowbridge in Japan (what a mess that was), then 16, 45, 63, and back to 45. Was on BMC Molders crew until BMC Dickman took over when Rob transferred back to Bremerton.

The only Donny's I can recall were GSM1 Yates (training), and a HT3 (can't recall his last name off the top of my head) that was in Alpha maintenance.

I still think the motto painted on the wall should be:

"This is LCAC country, No beach out of reach, No bar too far"

Anyway, welcome to the forum.

Hi everyone. I'm Donny.


Living in Oceanside, CA. I'm stationed on Camp Pendleton, (not a Marine, i'm in the Navy. I work here .

I have a 1992 Wrangler Sahara. I bought the Jeep 100% stock from the origional owner, i have since been adding to it. It is my Daily Driver as well as weekend toy so i'm not getting crazy with it "yet".

As luck would have it i work with about 8 other guys all with Jeeps. I think a bug hit at work and everyone is jumping on the "Jeep bandwagon" had another guy at work by himself a Jeep yesterday and another guy is picking one up this weekend. So our numbers are growing.

We mostly run LCIR, it close and a ton of fun. We will be making some trips to Big Bear in the near future. We are up for almost anything we welcome new areas we haven't been to before.

Let's see what else....I'm happily married and have 2 sons, one age 8 the other just turned 7. We currently live on the base in base housing we will be looking at buying a house in the area in the near future. My wife was born and raised in Riverside, CA. I met her out here. I am from New Jersey i got stationed out here in 1992 and have been here since. My job is a bit out of the norm for the Navy alot of special schooling so once you get in the program you are pretty much locked in. I will more then likely finish my 20 years right were i'm at.

That's about it for now if i can think of anything else worth adding to this i will.
