How many kills does it take to get to Sargeant in RL, Because I was playing some COD 4 and its taking quite a while to get to that rank.

HAHAHAHAHHAHA, ohhhhh little buddy, you've got a lot to learn.
Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it;) ) rank isnt awarded for all the people you kill. Remember, not all of the Marine Corps is made up of people on the front lines! We get promoted by a points system, based on your PFT score, rifle range score, time in service, etc.

This really made me chuckle though.

PS: Im a 5 Star General in COD4 :evilgrin:

I'll be on later this evening if anybody would like to play.

This is probably the funniest post I've come across on this forum to date, however.

I'm just one "stone cold complete idiot" away from making Staff Sergeant. Give me your coordinates.

Agreed, Prestige is the dumbest move ever. Should've kept my 5 stars.

Might I take the question on a more serious note and ask how the ranking system in Boot is?
I heard only the best make LCpl. So is it hard to get PFC, or what?

I believe you can PFC out of boot just by getting qualified people to join the Corps. through your recruiter.

Most of the Marines that make LCpl out of boot camp came in as a contract PFC. Probably did some ROTC in high school and such.

As far as coming out as a meritoriously promoted PFC, you just have to stand out from all the rest of the recruits. If you happen to become a squad leader or a guide in boot camp, you'll more than likely get the promotion over the other recruits.

It really comes down to if the DIs like you or not.

JSam, do a search and you will find ALL the answers you will need about graduating LCpl/PFC. We've covered this topic multiple times.

I can't believe a damn 21 year old in this country can actually be THIS stupid!

You are a classic case for needing to get out of the house and do something constructive with your time. Like going back to the 3rd grade!

Here's one for you. This is a prior service story, however quite comical.

In Infantry school we were training with the AT4's and using the 9mm sim rounds. We actually had a guy who asked the instructor this question: "If I run out of ammo for the AT4, could I fire 9mm rounds out of it." We got smoked pretty good for that. lol.

That guy could PT like no tomorrow, but he had 2 brain cells and they were afraid of each other.
