In the 1960s, during the Vietnam War, there were two ways of becoming a Marine-being drafted and choosing to join. Author Gregg Stoner, a baby boomer in disagreement with the war, joined the Marine Corps as a protest against the draft and with a strong desire to avoid fighting in Vietnam. Stoner's first enlistment began just after the Tet Offensive and was during a time when most Marines were sent to combat. But he was the only soldier from his platoon of eighty-five to remain stateside. The Yellow Footprints to Hell and Back details Stoner's life in the military-from a private in boot camp to working as a sergeant drill master. Beginning with the first grueling experiences as a new recruit to the immense pride at graduation, Stoner shares his inner thoughts at what it took to become a Marine. He had joined the Marines to avoid fighting overseas, but he gained much more than he had imagined. Filled with abundant anecdotes, this personal memoir relays the interesting and, at times unbelievable, stories of the Marine Corps. It conveys the feelings and attitudes that dominated this special time in American history.

The application for the soap bag
I like it because it will work best in an outdoor setting like camping, hiking and trail biking. Just put your preferred soap in it and go. Clean up and personal hygiene will be easy to do. When you are done just hang in out to dry. It stores easy with other grooming items.

Rapid mold growth
The parts where soap wasn’t touching 24/7 mildewed very quickly. and this doesn’t sit in water, it hangs on a hook beyond where the shower stream reaches. I didn’t even get halfway through a bar of soap before I realized it wasn’t that my soap turned the bag white, it was that the top half turned green with mold. The smell test was brutal.

Multi Purpose/Good Lather
Rich Lather. Durable. I also use and compared this to Dr. Sqauch's travel bags to keep your soap from getting destroyed. it does the same thing for 1/4 of the price. I would buy again when the time comes if the price is roughly the same.

Saves a Ton of Soap
Really great product if you wanna save soap bars and not have to buy new ones every couple of weeks. Not as scratchy as I thought it would be and it can be a bit awkward to use. Still a good product though.
