Becoming the Marines has been John Lindquist's dream since childhood. The young man from Milwaukee was planning to join the army after graduating from high school in 1966. Things were only interrupted a little, when he decided earlier that he would go to London to watch a Rolling Stones show. In England, in the dance floor, John met Lisa. It was the 33rd girl he invited to dance that night. No one wants to dance with a short-haired American boy who dresses out of fashion. Only Lisa agreed. They love each other. After a few delays, returning to America and then moving to London again according to love, John still could not escape the call of the army. He brought Lisa back to Milwaukee, held a simple wedding ceremony, and then enlisted. On October 23, 1967, John Lindquist enlisted in the army. He did it with a light mood. John's generation had grown up with an evident and pervasive anti-communist spirit. The songs that were heard many times were "Better Dead than Red" or "Kill A Commie for Mommie". The training session at Camp Pendleton was 19 days long: the Vietnamese battlefield was in urgent need of additional troops. Exactly 30/4/1968, John Lindquist boarded a plane to leave the United States.
