I went thru Parris Island Sept Nov 1967 and when I saw Gunny's welcoming speech in Full Metal Jacket... well, let's just say... NIGHTMARES.

That is the whole point of the training: if there's one time in your life you need to get it right it's when you're in combat and even then you might not survive. There's a better chance you and the jarhead next to you will survive if you get it right. Eat the apple!
