Sammer at Officer Candidate School
Those of you who don’t know Sameer Parekh can ignore this message. For those of you who do, he’s joined the Marines and is attending Officer Candidate School, and would appreciate your letters:
He does not have access to email or phone. Please send him snail mail (US mail) as often as you can. He will reply whenever he can from his OCS training. Your letters would be a good morale booster for him. Please address the mail exactly as shown below-
Candidiate: Parekh, Sameer, G /2263
Officer Candidate School, A Company, 2 Platton
2189 Elrod Avenue
Quantico, Virginia 22134-5033
Is Sameer the person who was written up by Forbes in the article where Forbes ran a half page picture of Adam?
If it is the Same Sameer, he did not seem like the a person who would join the marines.
Ooorah! Brings back memories (all bad ;-)). Tell him I said it sucks, but it sucks for everyone. And good luck.
Anyone looking for ideas on what to send him – buy a comic book or joke book and tear off a few pages at a time and send those.
(Btw, Platton s/b Platoon).
