Bobby Rushing
Class of 1985
Marine Corps, 4 Years
I joined the United States Marine Corps in 1986. I went to Boot Camp in Camp Pendleton and then went to MOS training as a 1371 Combat Engineer. I spent my first year of active duty in Okinawa Japan. I deployed from there twice and went to South Korea for 2 weeks each time. After completing my year there I came back to United States and was stationed at 7th Engineer Support Battalion with the Bridging platoon and then moved to Charlie company. From there I was deployed to Desert Shield / Desert Storm. Arrived there in Aug. We built strong back tents fro inbound troops. We moved around building fighting positions for different commands. When we entered Kuwait we were apart of clearing mine fields and putting up cattle fence so people knew the safe area. After that we went on into the airport in Kuwait. Once the war was over, I flew back to California and was processed out of the Marines. I was 6 months pass my actual EAS.
