You bastard! You made me cry. Anyone who has walked that parade ground following their son or daughter to their barracks feels the same thing. I took that walk last year.
I don't have any personal relationship with the marines or any armed forces but this brings a tear to my eye and makes me so proud to be american. Thank you to all the armed forces out there for everything that they have done and are doing for us back at home. God bless our troops.
They have too many and barrack is bringing the ones from afgan so they need room for them so my brothers friend twisted his ankle and they are dicharging him
@wildbill2713 We're over our numbers. Congress will allow only so many Marines in the branch and we have too many, so requirements are going to become more stringent.
You get all the uniforms once you graduate Boot Camp where ever you graduate and become a marine.Service uniform,Desert and woodland camo utilities,and dress uniform with service cap
@Discovery978 you have to pay for the uniform if you want it but i have been told you dont have to buy it but most people do cause when you graduate you have enough money to buy it and some other stuff i think.
LOL..There's NO Measure of a "JarHead" (cover wise), and Dress Blues are Awarded to the #1 of 5 "Honor Grads" ..I Know cause, I got my Blues and L/cpl stripes out of Basics (1981) OOH RAH Platoon 2057
Why do they hate me? I feel so alone. They call me a monster and i just deserve to die? All i want is to be a marine and serve. What does that make me? Do i deserve to die? Even if i do, i will die a Marine.
semper fi brother,i grad from boot in 02,fox cmpy 2nd btn,good luck n god bless,and if u join the marines first,u dont have to go to any other branches boot camp,u jus gotta pass there pt test,which is a cake walk compared to the pt tests marines put up with
yeas it's really hardcore. i was in the army for a few years and now i'm in the marines but it's so much different. i would go into the airforce like my gf. she likes it better.
hey how did you switch frome the army to the marines did you have to complete marine corps bootcamp or did you switch cause i know a retired airmen who swithed from the navy to the airforce
if you are a Marine you dont need to complete another branchs basic training. but if your lookin to switch into the Corps from another branch then yea ud need to goto boot.
It's pretty rough, but if you can just shut your brain off and remember only 3 things then you're good. All you need to know is Aye Sir, Yes sir, and No sir. Work on speaking in the 3rd person if you have any problems with that. Some days you will "jacked up" for no reason, but think of it as a way to make yourself stronger, to make yourself a better weapon. You're a knife and all it is doing is sharpening your blade.
you will get messed up if you don't have motivation. as soon as you say to yourself "I can't" you might as well request to be discharged. it's very stressful physically, but the majority of it is mental. don't get discouraged by the DI's. they will yell at you NO MATTER WHAT. done a good job? expect to get yelled at. done bad? you will find yourself in a world of hurt,
i just want to give this man a pat on the back,i give you props for the music and your service, your a great man, i want to be just like you when i turn 18... semper fidelis marine.
i can see why youd didnt want to wear the piss cover but the service charlies are badass and the i feel bad for the airforce they were the piss covers all the fucking time
damn im 70% excited 30% nervous haha... im relaxed right now but i know when i get to the day that i leave for bootcamp the next day im gonna be shitting bricks lol... probably for my whole last week.
I know what you're saying bout the excited...Especially when people ask if I'm nervous...my only response is "Hell, there's nothing to be nervous about yet I'm sitting in the safety of my home city"
Im a marine i appreciate this its stuff like this that make makes me love what i do it was hard going to afganistan but its small stuff like this that makes it worht it thank you
Thank you and I truly appreciate this Marines dedication. When I see these guys in the streets I look back and think of what they do for us. The answer is everything.
