They were still using the same photo in 1975.:)
Same photos!
I'll bet the front half of the book has the same photos too, and the last part had your Platoon/Company in it. I could find myself in only two of the many photos besides the 'Dress Blues' graduation type individual pictures.

You may be opening a "Bag of Worms"..
Shall I post your picture for the Flight Jacket, Class 44,'65?
I went through Boot camp in '64, Platoon 107, Jerry Sheridan was in my class (Tin bender or Hyd. HMM 363). I'll post my picture as "Honorman".
Not sure if we qualify as "Mustangs", there were a lot of us that were prior enlisted.

Bag of Worms?
LOL, I just thought it would bring back memories, you know the good the bad and ugly, but most of all where we all had to start at some point to become Marines.
I don't mind your posting it, but you could send it to me via email so I have a copy. I would post it on the HMM 363 site with my other pictures. I have not been able to find some of my pictures. I think they may be at my folks.

Remember?
OH YEAH!!
How can you forget?? I'm a Parris Island Marine, so the picture in my mind is a little different but the memories are the same. I've always wanted to go back to there and to New River, but never took the time. Need to move that up on my agenda,(I was Platoon 155 MCRD, 1966) before I forget what I went there for!

Same book in 66.
I went in a teenaged boy and graduated a teenaged man.
I 'became' a Marine just the way they promised. Best decision of my life.

Saying that Ole Dog looks good should require a visit to the Eye Doctor.
FYI
Marine Base San Diego was opened in 1921, it was redestinated as MCRD San Diego in 1948. regardless of what it was called, thousands of San Diego recruits have become U. S. Marines beginning in the 1930s.
