    Nah that ain't it...... in 64 you hadn't been out of the Marines long enough to understand advanced Army thinking yet.

    Go to the link below and scroll down until you come to Zero Defects and you will find that on 25 April 1966 it Exploded onto Ft. Jackson and had an annual celebration 21 April 1967.
