@rhcpkzi The Marines are technically the Navy's infantry even though they are now a separate branch. They are more badass than any of the other branches. They are also more stormtroopers than anything else. Like 100% warriors. There is less nonsense.
What company were you in? I go to a military school, so its not really like the hardcore Marines but its pretty cool and I'm in the Foxtrot 3 company.
Listening to you talk and to your advice / experience, I almost do not believe you were a "trouble maker" and had a "0.5" GPA. Comes to show that education does not always parallel maturity. Most people would hear "high school trouble maker" and imagine a low life or someone illiterate. Shows you can't judge by someone's past and that it's never too late to change. Good stuff Bart!
Semper Fi devil dog...didn't kno you were a warrior...my time in da Corps wuz 90' to 96' Air Winger...much luv to all ur endeavors...continue wid ur Esprit de Corps, homie...
4:23-4:39. What's special about the Marine Core that sets you apart from other branches/commands prestige? Don't discount there honor because of lack of knowledge to there mos and rates. Cant compare if you don't know. So its just that then, equality.
Wow Bart, you're like a SoCal version of me. I was a Marine and went to Berkeley, and you were a Marine and went to UCLA. I'm Taiwanese and you're either Chinese or Taiwanese (though I'm leaning towards the latter since you went to Taiwan with Geo). You seem to be into philosophy, and that's what I studied in Cal. The funny thing is, I've always felt that your brand of humor has a hint of that Marine barracks humor. Now I know why! Keep up the good work brother!
when you started off talking about the marines i thought you were going to say you went active so when you said you went reserves i was a little discouraged but nonetheless it was a great story man and i was still inspired by your story
i really want to know how it was like for you, in your experiences with hanging out with the "gangsters" because up until i was fourteen, i lived in a really bad street, and i want to just hear your experiences with it... Im planning on joining the marine corps too btw, stay up my dude! :D
how was it like overcoming being a gangsta....you dont seem to have THAT past behind you...but yeah...would like to hear your story on that....and what you went through....
health care via the VA will be huge for you as you age also I would think. My dad ex-army really needs the VA now that he's aged. Much respect to you.
What gang did you used to be in? Are you still affiliated or still in contact (friendly) with your old homies? I used to bang too, but I got out. I still see some of homies and we talk and what not, but I choose not to get involved with them like I used to mainly just to stay outta trouble and stay free. I would enjoy hearing your personal story bro, something me and other ex-bangers could relate to.
being in the marines is a dope thing like it really changes you but you really are just the underdog in the army. marines go in first, die first, clear everything out, then the army comes in, sets up road blocks, navy, etc etc etc.
i like the whole military lifestyle and fitness but i have a job, degree, and somewhat a practical life now, and dont really want to see action or called out of reserve later on in life... is there anything w/o a lifelong commitment in marines or army?
WOW Bart... Me Finding this Video was the greatest Timing ever!.... I am leaving sept 27 for the Army.. and for the past 6 months.. I lost my Car... My girlfriend.. My Money... The place I live... and man.. shit just happens you know?... and like you said don't take it with a frown.. but adapt and move on.. Those Words gave me a lot of hope and motivation Bro.... You are Truly someone worth looking up to.. Hoorah to you bud..
hey bart, what was your mos? supply administration and operations right? and what ranking did you end with? did you get to manage a whole units capital? im just curious because i was going to enlist in the same mos after i got out of highschool but i went to college instead.
yeah bro when i went to the army and told them i was a marine they were like wtf ok lets not fuck with this dude lol. But man the army way of things are so slow and the way things are done is all jacked up. Yeah man thanks for serving our country man. You're always a marine man Semper Fi.
i want to be a marine also i grew up in LA and ive seen some serious things. i know its a positive thing to be a marine but how hard was it for u while you were being trained and boot camp and all that.
i also want to kno wat the conditions are for war. like do u have to go to war or do u have a choice?
and grade wise do u have to have good grades in high school to be in the marines or do they even look at them?
dude i am a trouble maker tooo nd my mom is starting not to care nd i dnt want to keep gettin in trouble i got suspend 3 times in i year nd i dnt wanna get in trouble anymore plz tell wut to do right bak plz
I'm hoping to join the Corps but I'm scared because they're crazy badass. But I hope I get over my fear cause I've wanted to be a Marine since I was a youngin'.
Is the instruction on how to properly fashion a fucking branch into, like a sphere and kill an animal for food in 3rd phase at MCRD? Lmao, just playin Devildog.
I want to hear about the era in your life when you were a gangster, how you got out of it, how you transfered from east la college to UCLA so could you address those in another video? Nice stand up comedy by the way haha. I wanted to see u and bart at kollaboration but i couldn't get the tickets
