  • fuck this, its nothing like this at all

  • Awesome commercial - they only take commitments because you have to fight against whomever "they" say you have to fight against - no wonder my dad told me not to join the marine corps when I was going to in college.

    @SANO0311 - Everything that you said is true. The population of the United States is so god-damned brainwashed that I've decided to take my services elsewhere to build a true Empire. The Americans will keep fighting for nothing to protect their financial overlords...

  • @zlinn71 I somewhat agree, but only one that will leave this country it will be Jews. I rather die before some nasty ass Jew chase me out of my country.

  • Comment removed

  • Oorraahh

  • SICK!!

    AWESOME

    GO FUCKING USMC!!

  • We have created enemies is Middle East only because of Jewish state. Now when we told them to create peace with Palestinians, they decide to build apartment housing on stolen Palestinian land. It is because of them that Middle East will break alliance with us and we will be fucked. Politicians do not give shit that it is in our National interest to get that oil from Middle East. They decide to support Jewish dogshits who have taken over financial system of this country.

  • @sano0311 dang you sound like hitler dude

  • @XGCScrappy How does Jew with a gun shooting person with a fucking rock in his hand sound? Justice? Democracy?

  • @XGCScrappy Did you read the part how they got you Jesus liked ;) 2000 years ago it was Jesus tomorrow it will be you ;)))

  • @sano0311 That was an okay retort. Jesus is alive and can't wait for us to get our shit straight, but before He comes back we'll just keep trying. Do you know about the rockets.... yea either you do or you don't. I'll fight to live and be happy when I go home, but I'm not going to fail, He'll decide. Not you, nor me, or anyone else, He'll decide. Get over yourself.

  • @XGCScrappy And Jews are angels that murder Palestinians who throw rocks at them. I can't and I will not support Jewish oppression in Middle East.

  • @sano0311 Fuck off just because Jews have made a name for themselves does not mean you have to degrade them, and as for the Palestinians the land belongs to the Jews anyway so if they don't want to leave tough luck.

  • @TheShmexyTv The land belongs to Palestinians. They were exterminated like a rats and they assets were liquidated just as Hitler did those same innocent Jews. Why would Palestinians leave when fucking Jews are stealing their land? I hate Jews? No ....every country they went motherfuckers got wiped out because they can't live along other cultures. Here in Chicago you can't move in Jewish neighborhood because I am not stinking Jew. Equal housing my ass.

  • @sano0311 Grow a pair, sound like a liberal pussy. You wanna go after the Jews, go become a Neo-Nazi you ungrateful troll

  • I am sick of the morals we are helping to create. You know what I am talking about. I am sick off going to airport and living in this prison that we call our country. They have paid civilians big bucks to spy on us who have placed our lives for this country and as you say they have started to take away our guns. In Chicago only gangs and cops carry guns. I am neither. If shit hits the fan only thing I could do is take my k-bar to stab a few assholes before they try to kill me. Fucking life man.

  • Well sano0311 I'm going to become a Marine so I dont deserve to have anything other than wannabemarine. And you said you were once a Marine but yall have a saying "Once a Marine always a Marine. So you Fuck off

  • Sano0311 You might have been a Marine but real marines dont talk bad about the Corps

  • @Wannabemarine99 Yes I know that Marines die and patriots talk. Why should I talk when patriot like you have biger mouth. If everyone had a great time in why the hell most us grunts leave the Corps? I was once a Marine? I am greatfull for demotion from such a person as yourself. I have always dreamed to be spat on by patriot such as you. I mean "wanabemarine" tells a lot about your greatness. Fuck off.

  • @sano

    Yeah, but the MRE pound cake soooooo good. Semper Fi from the army side

  • @Covermeporkins11 Oh dude, I fucking love the pound cake, and the energy bars.. But the wheat bread leaves alot to be desired... .__.

  • @Covermeporkins11 Now if you talking about pineapple flavor you are right, but if you are talking about vanilla that is definitively different :)))

  • The commercial looks all nice and dandy but what they do not put in this video is shitty pay, crappy food (MRE or cement) and worst of all hand full of idiots that will give you orders due to their rank. Piece of shit cops get paid insanely much more than a grunt that is deployed to hot-zones like Fallujah and Ramadi. When you get sick as a dog they give you damn Motrin ;) I am not going to lie there are days when I want to go back, but than I ask myself for whom and why?

  • @sano0311 You did that for your country, you get shot at because you love your country and you take orders that make no sense and endanger your life because your sweating your testicles off in 115 degree weather, sand in your ass cheeks, but your doing it because you love your country, and we love our troops and every day we thank them for their sacrifice. Thats why.

  • @soccergod561234 I am not talking about every single American. About 20% of this country gives a shit about future of this country while rest of them shit all over it. Politicians only care about reelection. They don't give a flying fuck about any of us. I would take bullet for any of my grunt Marines , but would I go back to throw away my life in order to create Utopia for politicians. Fuck that. I don't care about corrupt rich. We pay taxes and they don't, because they are "Job Creators".

  • @sano0311 True, 80% of this country would rather not have an army and pretend war didnt exist, well ya know what retards? Not preparing an army means we're gonna get shit on by other nations, so war doesnt just disappear magically, but still, its up to the 20% of Americans with a sense of pride, and a bit of a backbone to uphold this country's morals and to keep it running. Politicians cant tell how far away a bullet is from their head by the sound it makes if its a pop or a whizz.

  • @sano0311 Politicans have rarely served in the armed forces, and even more scarcely; have seen combat. They try to do whats best for this country economically, yet think denying basic rights such as gun control and privacy is best. Personally I dont care about my privacy, if some one I didnt know was watching my every move, I wouldnt care, I've got little to hide, but take away my guns? Aw hell no. Japan didnt invade this country, because in their emperors own words: "I shall never

  • @sano0311 have my troops set foot on American soil, for behind every blade of grass would be an American with a gun" And that used to be true, but sadly; not anymore.

  • Hey guy below me go fuck yourself

  • ATTENTION NEW RECRUITS:

    You have voluntarily joined the New Third Reich.

    You are pawns in the NWO scheme of World Domination.

    You will be stripped of your humanity, and kill women and children.

    You will be contaminated by US government Depleted Uranium rounds.

    You will abandon your morals and serve the US Opium Trade.

    You will obey the illegal orders of your Nazi commanders and President

    You will eventually realize YOU are a Nazi

    You will realize 9/11 was a LIE

    You will kill yourself

  • @apatriotofusa hey go fucking die

  • @MrHazlip Hey, no way am I joining up AGAIN!!!!!

  • @apatriotofusa You will realize it is the United States military to lives and dies so that you can be free

  • @semperfimarine13 As a veteran I can say the US Military are pawns of the New Nazis that now control the US Government. 9/11 was a lie to shock-and-awe the American people into supporting the illegal, immoral and Fascist invasion of not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, but NOW SIX DIFFERENT NATIONS!!! Are you so blind you cannot recognize the tyranny and TREASON that has been foisted upon this nation? You have been propagandized into thinking Muslim hijackers committed 9/11.........BULLSHIT!!!!

  • @apatriotofusa Oh god, another tinfoil hat idiot... :P

  • @securion100 You don't have a clue......go back to sleep while our nation is being destroyed by Puppet O-bomb-a and Puppets Bush, Clinton and Bush before him. Their NWO Nazi Masters tell them what to do.....and you are too propagandized, or plain ignorant to see the truth. This new SuperCongress of O-bomb-a's is the next step in the Fascist Dictatorship of the USSA. THAT was the REAL goal of the manufactured "debt crisis". Congress has been rendered moot! Wake up sheeple!!!!!!!

  • @apatriotofusa No matter what bullshit you decide to say, I still plane on becomeing a United States Marine. I love this country. You don't have to lover the government, but show some love and appreciation for your country.

  • @semperfimarine13 It is the love of my country which motivates me to expose the Fascism that has infected our government like a Nazi cancer.....The Nazis that now control the destruction of our nation MUST BE DESTROYED or else our nation will be destroyed. Joining the American Nazi Military will not help our country. It will only serve to help those who wish to destroy it.

  • @apatriotofusa Ok, whatever helps you sleep at night.

  • @semperfimarine13 Who says I sleep at night......??

  • @apatriotofusa Arguing on the internet about politics is like competing in the special olympics. Even if you win. You're still retarded. So Metaphorically speaking you're retarded.

  • @Beatz1297 That stolen joke was originally about George W. Bush.

  • @semperfimarine13 The US Military no longer protects the freedoms of the American people. Instead they protect the interests of those who wish to destroy our freedoms!!!

    Sic Semper Tyrannis!

    Death to Tyrants!

  • @apatriotofusa I love nazi's i cant wait :D

  • @apatriotofusa Ok so as a veteran you are going to kill yourself? Cool. Bye bye.

  • @Beatz1297 Yes, I'm a veteran, but I never killed ANYONE. You think you have to fight in a war to be a veteran? If I was given vaccines with mercury, squalene, and who knows WTF else, steroids, mind control drugs, suffer from PTSD, and forced to kill innocent men women and kids, yeah.....I just might kill myself. Military suicides are at an ALL TIME HIGH as the propagandized pawns realize that THEY are the terrorists........and our government is the New Third Reich!

  • @apatriotofusa Still all talk no proof. You're either high or insane. I want proof. Until then that's what I think of you.

  • @apatriotofusa And maybe if you would stop accusing all sorts of things and provide proof to your accusations people wouldn't think you're a lunatic. It's not far fetched that whatever you're saying is true. but until you provide proof I think you're full of shit.

  • @Beatz1297 The proof of aliens is in my videos. As for 9/11...If at this late date, you don't realize it was a TOTAL LIE.......you probably never will. Break free of your matrix pod and look around at the REAL world.

  • @apatriotofusa hahaha ok. I'll take a look....

  • @TheSaaam22 why do u comment on a video when u no ppl r gonna get upset? i know many people who served in the marines and tht are respectable and dont "suck ass" so dont go around saying tht shit its rude, disrespectful, and offensive. so dont speak on all of their behalfs. also i would be ashamed if u are an american.

  • @WilliamWallace96 whats wrong with hippies?

  • @TheSaaam22

    They are lame and play video games and smoke pot while other young guys fight and see combat and light up tree lines in Afghanistan somthing todays college brat can never do.

  • @AmphibiousReconMSOB hahaha thats like me saying.. all americans are fat, it's just a stereotype.

  • you dont join the military to serve your country, you do it for yourself. you dont think twice about following an order, you just do it. honestly people who talk bad about the government can keep on doing so but it isnt going to change the fact that you're apart of that government or another. money is business, business is government. and "TheSaaam22" i get the feeling you were never a soldier nor ever could be, you would not understand half the shit soldiers go through, go back to school.

  • @WilliamWallace96 well all the people that serve my country do 'suck ass'. i don't find them respectable at all. and i love how you used the term 'liberalist'. i had no idea that you generally believed that equal rights were a bad and pussy-like thing? sorry for the inconvenience, i didnt know you were mentally subnormal. ps i never said the marines never had balls, they do, but they're using their gift in a terrible way. do some research in the mental homes your country provides for you

  • @WilliamWallace96 hahahahahahahhahaahhaahhaahhaa­hahaha

  • @TheSaaam22 Fuck you. People like you don't appreciate anything.

  • @megabyte611 really? how do you know that? you have no idea about who i am, what i do etc. but yet you decide to judge me with little to nothing knowledge of who i am. Thank you for your ingenious and wise words, ive come out of this conversation feeling intellectually superior to you

  • @WilliamWallace96 the marines arent defending shit, 9/11 has tonnes more evidence to show that the 9/11 commission report lied to you. do you really believe that a passport flew out of the plane upon impact with the tower and that passport happened to be a terrorists? get fucking real and get in the real world and try and escape from the tiny little bubble your government has put around your head.

  • @WilliamWallace96 how could i respect your country or mine? we are the scum of the earth, we'd rather spend billions of dollars every week on financing for this war, when we could be saving millions of lives in africa. now dont tell me that america helps other countries, well you probably were thinking, what about libya? well lets face it if america really helped countries they would have been in the Congo fighting instead of libya, the only reason the americans are their is for the money.

  • @WilliamWallace96 i was? im not even american, i just find this advertisement disgusting

  • Awesome !!! Hoorah !!!!!

  • @WilliamWallace96 im joking chill the fuck out

  • I CANT WAIT TO ENLIST

  • the damn few, the fucking proud, the badass marines

  • @jouwmamma im not american, i was just showing how fucking dumb people are for even wanting to join the army to feed the wealthy

  • i really want to go but i dont think im strong enough

  • Gotta Respect The marines, but I chose the USAF for a reason...I like my life.

  • OMFG AMERICA FUCK YEAH! WE'RE THE BADDEST MOTHER FUCKERS IN THE WORLD.. YEAH!!!!!

  • @TheSaaam22 Hell yeah we are!

  • @Colesuper WE FUCKING KILLING THOSE GAWD DAMN ARAB TALIBAN SCUM... FUCK YEAH MUOTHER FUCKERS! AMERICA ALL THE WAY! WE GOT THOSE FUCKING DIRTY INDIANS OF THIS LAND IM PRETTY SURE WE'LL GET THESE DIRTY ARABS OFF TOO!!

  • silent drill team seems pretty badass i might consider that but im probally going in for infantry or special weapons security

  • Amazing, they same guy that did the voice over, taught me how not to shoot from the hip in #MW2 and he's black.

  • haha! motor t faggots, oh man. obviously you're a little whiny bitch who probably gets the short end of the stick all the time.

  • Sorry I ment your stupid the marines will always be the spear

  • 45asap your the marines will always be the tip of the spear

  • marines are fucking stupid. fuck the latrine corps. apparently a bunch of retards that spin rifles and kiss ass are considered elite. they only show what they want you to see. they don't talk about the seedy shady shit that goes on behind the scenes. i.e. gangs in the latrine corps, drug dealing, what else did i encounter oh yeah hypocrisy and shitloads more. example: my motor pool sergeant is fucking a corporal who was supposed to be on duty but had her little asskissers cover for her

  • @45asap Fuck you

  • @45asap oh motor t....? yeah thats where all the retards go. Didnt do so hot on your asvab did ya?

  • @45asap ha who cares you joined the marines everyone get fucked over in there military career, you knew what you were doing when you signed up. so shut it and stop crying

  • Top class soilders. You get nothing but respect from your friends and allies over the pond. Just a shame to see more arguments about which branch of your armed services are better, all of which deserve respect no matter what uniform they wear. God bless from England.

  • @Vetwolf13 "Let me explain to you how this works: you see, the corporations finance Team America, and then Team America goes out... and the corporations sit there in their... in their corporation buildings, and... and, and see, they're all corporation-y... and they make money"

  • 51 talibans dont like this...

  • join the marines if you like guns and violence :D

  • BADASS!!!  SEMPER FI

  • hey everybody lets all join the military and go to afganistan duh-huh-huh!!!! maybe we can score a kill before we get blowed up and stuff!!!! its gonna be better over there 1 day!!!! idiots, im a vet but your average military man appalls me

  • right don't show the PTSD after coming back home, etc...I love my country and the military but this isn't a video game.

  • @bigfatAMERCANbastard

    Fucking aye man.

  • who the hell do you guys think yall are? hating on one of the best, sorry THE BEST military in the world! If you wanna talk shit then why dont you say it to a marines face, he'll set you straight real fucking quick! and hey if you dont like getting your ass kick then dont say shit and just move somewhere else! and if you live somewhere else then stop fucking looking up Marines!!!

  • @bigfatAMERCANbastard You know as much as people might hate this comment i agree with you sevenfold.. every other country fuckin hates us and i know why haha its kinda sad

  • @PivotB3stZ Ok, so to some extent you disproved one of my examples, my original point still stands. They were just trying to do their job, but its the attitude of the American millitary that gets to me. Hearing their "Beautiful"s and "Got that bastard"s when they were shooting the cameramen down makes me believe that it was much more fun than it should have been.

  • Comment removed

  • @redsman293 Show me some child "insurgents" and I'll believe you. The US soldiers have no right to go around killing people who pose no threat to them. Have you seen that video of the US Chopper gunner blowing apart a random group of Iraqi cameramen for fun? Some "insurgents".

  • @SuperCactusman It was not for fun at all and you threw that completely out of context and purposely stated it the way you did in a mis-leading way. The camera men were not armed and were mistaken IN THERMAL that the outline of their cameras were AK's and an RPG which is accurate, because the way they held them (Specifically the RPG one) Yes, they were completely innocent and it was a giant screw up on the pilot and gunner's fault, however, it was on accident and they were court marshalled.

  • @SuperCactusman -Continued

    And by a "mis leading way" I mean, you flat out lied.

  • @SuperCactusman The US kills people who pose a theat to the (harmless) Iraqi people.

  • @FutureDevilDogOORAH umm Marines are fucking badass but there has been 100,000 thousand civilian casualties in Iraq my man..

  • @2WorldWar2 most of those death's had nothing to do with the USA or ir's allies Iraq was damn near in a Civil war plus fighters from other countries killing Iraqi's

  • @vanillasunshyne so just a question. i have heard a million times on how just a regular marine GRUNT beats out army rangers, and you think that MARSOC and recon don't crush your green berets?

  • @vanillasunshyne um...MARSOC is like the Green Berets of the USMC...you really need to read up on thsi stuff before commenting.

  • HOORAH!!

  • Comment removed

  • @MrJzell22 Its Hooah guy.... The Marines is Hoorah get it right!

  • @WarfighterCapable Theres NO H in OORAH

  • @Fuckrap2 There is no R in Ah U.S. Army says Hooah I don't give a damn what the Marines say.

  • @WarfighterCapable i know the fucking U.S. Army says thier gay ass Hooah

    dont talk shit if you havent been in the corps

    and if your gonna reply with U.S. Army is beast or better the the U.S.M.C. your wrong my friend, ive been to combat(0311) and ive been taught to fight with what i have in the most deadly way possible on the other hand the Army troops are given technology and hooked up equipment in place of ACTUALY training them ive seen it in action.

    i dont give a damn about the army

  • @Fuckrap2 The only people who claim the Marines or Army is better are civilians and Pogues... As for technology we get the same shit... The only diff is the Marines use the M16A4 more than the M4, All Infantry in both branches get the best tech... That being said I actually prefer the M16A4 over the M4. If you wanna continue the insults I could get some pogie bate from the corner shop..

  • @WarfighterCapable  Trainning is way differnt...

  • @Fuckrap2 One Team One fight motherfucker deal with it... A real Infantryman would know that..

  • @WarfighterCapable Right on target.

  • -.- touché

  • Just a reminder, 90% of casualties in the Iraq war are civilians, a third of which are children.

  • @SuperCactusman Yeah civilian INSURGENTS. I hope you know that the US is not fighting a army of soldiers.

  • @davidjradich the best weapon there is, is a marine with his M16 A2 w/ grenade launcher

  • @zilla249 A4

  • kids, remember, you ain't fuckin' rambo when you join them, don't try to be a hero

  • @OnbekendGHC Good point. Better yet, join the Navy

  • Great ad, and total respect to the USMC but i kno damn well that war isnt all about drills runnin around with an m16 and havin fun. Over there u barely get sleep and draggin all that armor and ammo doesnt help. It DOES get depressin. Especially wen u have nothin to do u feel lonely and ur missin home. The commercials are awesome but they need to get more realistic.

  • Ok if you want to compare special forces then MARSOC tops all

  • we dont accept applications we dont accept commitments just a gallon or more of painfully dripped blood

  • man these guys act lik they r the shit when they are only killing civilians stupid ass soldiers raping little 15 year old girls and burning em then throwing dogs down a cliff and worst eating dogs and shooting them? discipline my ass. they aint doing shit and they no it thats why they so desperate to kill. so they kill innocent people instead thats how you know they arnt fighting with no one but go home and say shit like i was getting shot at and killing ppl when they no they were killin sheeps

  • @itzYourBoyb You are an idiot who doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. That is the kind of crap the Japs did in WW2, not the conduct of the Average American Soldier, Sailor, Airman or Marine. I know, I've been there! What the hell do you know? Yes, terrible things happen in war and atrocities happen. I am against the current war myself. But don't talk shit about the men and women doing the dirty work. It is the politicians and bankers who are behind it that deserve criticism.

  • @itzYourBoyb

    thats called stereotyping..and all it does is show your ignorance.

    even i know this and im a 13 year old kid

    get your shit straight before you publicly state bullshit like this

  • usmc owns but the netherlands army sucks i wanna live in usa =(

  • This UN resolution was vetoed by the US: 1987 Measures to prevent international terrorism, study the underlying political and economic causes of terrorism, convene a conference to define terrorism and to differentiate it from the struggle of people from national liberation.

  • @niev0000 i ask you?.

  • 50 persons are hippies :X.

  • @manian15 UN

  • always faithful

  • Oorah Bro

  • waht fucking fag would dislike this? marines are and forever ill be the best orah

  • Pay for all of those in pain, for those who died in vain... Scars from battle nevermore

    still we march off to War! War!! War!!! War is my shepherd!!!! Hate it if we can't comprehend it, kill it if we don't understand it. Pray to god and your fate is sealed.... as you die alone in the killing fields. War is business you're gonna die for your corporations because it's profitable...

  • Singapore needs a Marine Corp, cause without them, Singapore is a very easy target for countries as small as East Timor. So they depend on USA -.- Is that enough?

  • Great ad, but I rhink they should show how war really is.

  • @GodHatesWar If they did that, almost nobody would join.

  • @davidjradich Maybe, but they would know what they are fighting for.

  • @GodHatesWar Freedom isn't free, It costs a Buck oh five!

  • @GodHatesWar That would scare away everyone from joining....Trust me. I've been there.

  • @TheSkyIsBrown Yeah it must horrible. But here in Sweden our ad's show the brutality of the war, and the effect on the civilians. This makes good people who join who really want help the innocent. Not to be rude but I saw a video of an Apache gunship crew, and they had no respect for civilian lives, it was almost like they were playing a video game.

  • @GodHatesWar  True.

  • @GodHatesWar true that watch this video : Amazing speech by war veteran

  • You know what I've noticed? It's always the ones that have'nt been there that are bad mouthing us. Its always the ones that are going to sit at home and be the armchair critics of what we do. For once though the Army says it best --->

    "There are only two kinds of people that understand Marines: Marines and the enemy. Everyone else has a second-hand opinion."

    Gen. William Thornson, U.S. Army

  • Your idea for the future noted, and laughed off. Now, about your nature, your present and your past (much more factual): You are a putrefied residual from a discarded rack of test-tube rejects obtained with the jerking off of a whole battalion of Soviet Siberian Mongols who went on top of your mother, a Berlin whore, in April 1945, and later used for artificial insemination of her. Wait for the e-mail answer, that's even juicier. Gheorghij

  • The Few...The Proud...The BADASS!

  • @3mara3salvatrucha

    Marine Corps doesn't take drop outs......Try again next time!

  • @TheFutureMarine2012 as long as the navy is around

  • Don't mind Gheorgyi....... to quote Gunny Hartman (Gheorgyi) "has a hard on for Marines, because we kill everything we see." He has been crackin his little cocktail weenie to Marine videos for months and can't get enough!!

  • Boys, don't fall for it. It's all HUMBUG. Gheorghij

  • @Gheorgyi i have a great idea for you... move you and your family to somalia, so they can rape your family in front of you ( :

  • i hope there will be no 2012 so i will be old enough to enlist in the Marine Corps

  • Watch the film "Full Metal Jacket" 

  • @The4ization The marines interest me, I just wanted to know what the deal was for the Marines in comparison to the other forces. The British seem to train their Royal marines into a Special forces unit, interested in learning more about the United States Marines. Can your guys get deployed after basic training? Heard somewhere they can, Knowing what the media are like, its probably an over exaggeration.

  • @davidjradich after reading your comments, im never even going near a military recruiter in my life.

  • @MrJazzeJ It is always good to make informed decisions. There is good and bad in serving in the military. It is a calling for some, it is also part of one's karma I think. I went in the Navy because it was my karma. You, perhaps it is not your path. I have no regrets though. I got to see lots of cool and not so cool places and learned lots about life. Saw whales, sharks and dolphins at sea. Awesome sights I will never forget, as well as some bad things too.

  • I've always want to be a marine ever since I was 8 years old. But my parents want me to go to the navy academy, but I 100% don't want to go there! I'm only 13 years old so any advice?

  • @pringles509 GO to the Naval Academy by all means! The Marine Corps is part of the Navy. Graduation from the Naval Academy guarantees a commission as a second lieutenant in the Marines or Ensign in the the Navy. You have the option to go Marines or Navy while in your third year at the Academy. Plus a degree from the Academy is very prestigious. Also, I think that getting involved in a JROTC program, regardless of branch will help as well. Good luck and SEMPER FI!

  • @pringles509 Other advice. Getting into a service academy is very competetive, so another option is ROTC in college. Usually Navy ROTC programs are better, because, as I said, the Marine Corps is part of the Navy. Recruiters can give you the appropriate info as can your high school guidance counselor. Also, stay out of trouble. Avoid drugs and keep your record clean. The military does not want druggies or felons. Get in physical shape too. It is good to see a kid with goals.

  • @pringles509 I assume you are in Junior High right now. Look at what your high school offers in regards to JROTC programs. Regardless of branch, JROTC will give you a good exposure to the military and the instructors (at least the ones I had) will help you out. If there is no JROTC, look for organizations like Civil Air Patrol, Sea Cadets, Young Marines, etc...Any are a good background. Also, learn as much as you can before joining. It is not all guts and glory and excitement.

  • @pringles509 Don't jump into it. I got screwed myself, because I did. Instead of becoming a Navy Corpsman with the Marines (Marines use Navy Medics), I wound up as a deck seaman. Regardless of if you go to the academy or enlist, Pick the career option that YOU want. If it is not on your contract, then DON'T SIGN IT! The needs of the military will supersede what you want unless it is in writing. Recruiters are kind of like used car salesmen. Buyer beware.

  • @pringles509 Get a good ASVAB score. It will help determine your qualification for your job in the military. Also, ask yourself the following:

    Do I want to put myself in a position, where I may have to kill another human being?

    Do I want to allow myself to be put in a position where I can be killed or physically and psychologically maimed for life?

    Do I have faith in the National Command Authority (The president and those under him) to utilize me in the right way? Is it worth my life?

  • Respond to this video...I am a Gulf War vet. Disabled. I lost a finger, messed up my back and have PTSD. I never personally killed anyone, but saw people die and had to clean up the mess. I still have nightmares and flashbacks.  The government gave me drugs that were not even tested on animals and some folks I know are sick because of those medications. My dad was in Vietnam and he can hardly walk from being hit with grenade frags and wakes up screaming every night.

  • @pringles509 I don't regret serving, would do so again probably, but part of me is angry because I don't agree with how the military is used sometimes. That is my opinion. My advice. Learn as much as you can and make an informed decision. If the Marines is what you want, Go for it! Just understand that war is horrible. There is nothing good in it, except its end. And the price a soldier pays is very high, sometimes too high. It is up to you. Good luck and God Bless.
