I'm Private First Class GarrettGillespie with your Marine Minute. Recruits and Marines return toParris Island from Albany, Georgia to continue their training September 6th.Recruit Training Regiment Commanding Officer, Col. Christopher P. O' Connor hadthis to say, "I want to make sure Ithank the local community, the state of Georgia, Marine Corps Logistics BaseAlbany. Everybody here has been incredibly helpful and supportive. That’sreally allowed us to hit the ground running and do what we’ve been doing inParris Island. If you look at what they do in 12 weeks of training, everyminute counts. The drill instructors have been teaching their young recruitsdrill, formations, weapons handling, knowledge, guided discussions along ourvalues of honor courage and commitment. The training does not stop. We’ve beenable to get done quite a bit, honestly more than I thought. I think therecruits are going to have had a good experience here in Albany, and then getright back into training in Parris Island without really losing a step."
