Who was the single weirdest dude you knew in The Corps?

I was just thinking about this guy I knew out in 29 Palms, (I honestly can’t believe it, but after 30 years, I’ve forgotten his name), who was the weirdest dude I ever knew in the Marines, and maybe the weirdest dude I ever knew ever.

We both happen to be from Los Angeles, and I didn’t have a car, so one time he gave me a lift home for the weekend. The entire car ride was him talking about the anti-gravity spaceship he was building in his parent’s garage. The whole way back to base on Sunday, his antigravity spaceship, in detail. And by the way, his talks were peppered with various hints at conspiracy theories. He wanted to show me the plans when we got back to base.

He was already kinda weird before that, but after the car rides, I basically never talked to him again.

EDIT: Holy shit, this took off a little. Thank you to everyone who shared their stories or cracked a good joke! 😊
