My name is Jon Munro and I am in fact a poolee with about 123 days left till boot camp. I am a senior in highschool and for the longest time (Sophomore year) I have wanted to be a Marine and it is in every fiber of my being. I live, breathe, think, eat, and drink the Corps. I had the rank structure and hymn memorized before I even signed the papers last september. I signed up a whole 4 days after my 18th birthday and I am exactly where I want to be. I know a great deal about Marine Corps history and the Marine Corps in general but by no means everything. I would be happy to help any poolee or Marine friend who asks for it to the best of my ability. I ship out in July for MCRD SD and I will be in Fox Co. In general I love the Corps and am not even a Marine yet and I plan on making it a career. In closing Poolee Jon Munro reporting for duty, SIR!!!

Man I remember 123 days ago. I leave with 3 of my MCJROTC leaders. 3 days after we walk stage for graduation. We're all excited. We're heading for PI. We have a kid at our school he signed up while he lived up toward Walla Walla, and we leaves for SD sometime in July. Ooh Rah man stay motivated.

Just a tip: Poolee's aren't allowed to say that until you earn the title. same with "Semper Fi" it will mean more once you earn the title.

Glad to have you on the board. Look around and asks questions.
