You're stupid, dumb and worthless. And those are on your good days.
You're just a measly recruit. You're not a Marine.
Not yet anyway.
Your identity and all that you know is stripped from your being like the civilian clothes you wore off the bus to boot camp.
And when you make a mistake, which can happen at any time for any reason, you can be sure you'll be made an example for your entire platoon to see.
That's just how it's done as seasoned instructors transform raw recruits into Marines in 13 intensive weeks at Marine Boot Camp in San Diego and Camp Pendleton.
