I had the honor and pleasure of visiting the Marine Corp Recruit Depot this August 2004 for the graduation of my oldest son. He is now a Marine and I am very proud of him.

On the Marine Corp Recruit Depot you can find a lot of California, San Diego and Marine history. The base has been there for almost 100 years and served to protect the area now known as Old Town San Diego. On the base is a museum which tells all about the base and the Marine Corp. I was very impressed.

The base is located north east of the airport and can be reached by exiting and going west on Rosecrans Blvd.
