Day at Camp Pendleton

Back in August, I was invited, because of my role in the Navy League, to participate in a “J Wayne Day” at Camp Pendleton. Marine units will occasionally invite spouses and family members of Marines to experience a little bit of what their Marine does, in a pretty safe, sanitized way. They used to be called “John Wayne Days,” befitting for how the Hollywood actor “was” a Marine. Today, with many more women marines, with male spouses or otherwise, it’s now a more neutral “J Wayne Day.”

This is a slightly more personal video than what I have on our Navy League site, with a few photos of me added.
It is a bit of behind-the-scenes at Camp Pendleton, which houses 40,000+ Marines and their families. Hope you find it of interest. Seven minutes long.
