NVP,
Welcome.
I myself am a former Marine and spent August of 2001 - August of 2002 at Camp Foster.
Which camp are you stationed on?
I was still a fan of bikes back then but was more interested in the tuner cars they had over there. They had a '96 R33 GT-R on a used lot over there for the equivalent of $7000. I wanted to buy it and bring it back to the states so bad.
I've eaten there too! IIRC they have 'heat' levels of their curry and lvl 10 would light you up!

I loved Oki! Go have some CoCos for me!
I actually liked the island. What I didn't like was the 'punish everyone for the mistakes of the few' mentality of the douche bag unit leaders over there.
I joined late (25) and went over there as a Corporal at 29, and became Sgt 4 months before my first enlistment was over.
Yet, unless you were a Staff NCO, you couldn't get a license over there. This was because a few NCOs and non NCOs had gotten DUIs in the few years before. I got a major who I was working under on temp duty at another base there to sign off a justification for me to get a license.

I dated a Filipino girl once back in the day. Even took her to the Ball. She was wild!
I have a '73 Datsun 240Z that I'm going to do an engine swap to in the future sometime. If I don't put an L28ET, from an 83 280zx turbo, in it, I'd like to put an RB25DET in it.
