One year ago Thursday, he was c. U.S. Marine Corps sergeant fight ing in South America. On Oct. 25, 1983, the U.S. Army and the Marine Corps invaded the island of Grenada. McGrath was part of that invasion. McGrath, 22, an anthropology major from La Coste, enlisted in the Marine Corps when he was 17. After boot camp, infantry training, am phibious reconnaissance school and various Army specialty schools, he served for three and a half years at Camp Lejeune, N.C., with a recon naissance unit. His years at Camp Lejeune were spent training and retraining. Little did he know he would have to utilize thr.t training in the fall of 1983. “We departed on Oct. 17, on our way to Lebanon,” McGrath said. “A- bout three days out the captain of the ship came on the intercom and announced that we had had some trouble down in Grenada, (and) we were going down there.” McGrath said the plan was for the Rangers (a division of the Army) to “take the island,” and the Marines were to serve as a backup. 1 hings didn't work out that way. “They came over the radio,” McGrath said. “They sounded like they were crying. They needed help because they were getting shot out of the sky.” McGrath had just returned from a reconnaissance mission on the island when his unit had to go hack to the island. His unit was told it would be lighting Communists the minute it landed on the l>eat h. he said. “The whole time we were going in, we were trying to get our thoughts together,” McGrath said. Thoughts of loved ones at home, the* outcome of the mission and their destinies Filled the Marines’ minds as they waited to land on the beach, he said. li wasn’t until about 10 minutes before landing that the Marines were told the enemy was not on the beach, lie said. The Marines landed just before the sun set. “That night we didn’t get any sleep,’’ he said. “We stood post, won dering if we were going to be attack ed.” Another cause of apprehension was a gunship that was firing at the island. “It (the ship’s cannon) puts one round every square foot tail ters straight across," hes it shoots, it really tears up The next day, McCrai with each man weightedd over 60 lbs. of ammunition* made its way to Fort Ruppei.
