In the" very few; short months he has been in the marine corps he has made puite a name for himself. He has already been- promoted from private to private first class and is well on his way to becoming a corporal. cor-poral. This next step is quite a promotion for Rex because it means he will become a non-commissioned officer. The United States Marine corps recruiting office in Pocatello tells us that men like Sant. are in great demand in the marines. Sant is just one example of the way young men. ,who enlist in the U. S. Marines 'prosper' if they really want to get ahead. Leaving t lie more spectacular uniform of the U. S. Marines at his home base in San, Diego he is ..vearing the more conservative uniform, uni-form, of the U. S. Marines, namely forest green. The uniform that Sant had on, however wasi by no means any less snappier than the blue uniform Jhat we all associate with the Marines corps. |
