No, I never have. I did see that it is available on Amazon .com and I will order it on the Yorkie Rescue Link on their home page. Thanks Lisa for suggesting it. I see it has a lot of great reviews. I know a lot of the Citadel Graduates go into the Army. I do not recall every meeting any, but I do know several VMI graduates that I served with. At the time I was in, 3-10% of the Naval Academy grads p[ted for the Marine Corps. Not sure what the percentage is now.
