AAaaahhh the good ole daze!
2 ft. of snow at Tigerland, as in Ft. Polk LA??? That must have been different! I did Basic at Ft. Polk and hated it. I didn't think my enlistment date through very well and landed at Polk for Basic during July & August. The hot & sand behind the barracks for PT was a hoot!!!
