Being a Pvt sucks. Need I say more?
PFC? Not as bad as Pvt, but just as grueling.
I loved being a LCpl because of the camaraderie with all the other reckless 19-21 yr olds running amuck during "hurricane parties" at the barracks in Camp Lejeune, but still a rough rank.
Cpl was gratifying as it is the first step to leading younger Marines (although at any rank we lead younger Marines).
Sgt was my favorite rank. Although I got out as a Sgt and didn't experience ...

I got out of the Marines in 07, so I could get my degree. I'm entering my third year of college now and I want to be an officer. I do miss the camaraderie. Enlisted, I was a comm Marine. I got to do a lot of very life altering things in my deployments to Fallujah and Hit. The one thing I didn't get to do was lead Marines in combat, although I did lead Marines in Iraq, it wasn't necesarily combat missions. I was basically on the sidelines while my fellow Marines kicked ass.

When I ...

It was the early morning hours of January 17, 1991. The bombing of Bagdad had bugun a couple of hours earlier. I had just arrived in Parris Island and was just as confused and as scared as everyone else. It was when we were being issued uniforms in supply that you were directly across from me at the table. I was shocked that such a beautiful woman was going into the Marine Corps. You were about 5' 1" maybe 19 / 20 blue eyes brown hair. We did not stop making eye contact and you knew that I ...

Boot Camp May - Aug 1968

About 2 weeks ago I was at walmart w/ my son doing a little grocery shopping when I woman comes up to me and says, "HEY!" quite rudely.

I looked at her and said excuse me?? She then proceeded to say, "I know you're a marine by the way you are carrying yourself, who in the hell let you dye your hair that way and what ****ing command are you in?"

At this point I'm astounded by the fact that she would come up to me when I am with my son and chew my ass. ...

new close order drill

in 1956 the form of close order drill was called Squads Right Drill, what was the form of close order drill prior to and after Squads Right??

When I was in bootcamp at MCRD San Diego in 1956 and when I became a drill instructor in 1957 the close order drill was known as Squads Rigth Drill. Apparently before and after that time another form of close order drill was in use. What was that form of drill called?

I am currently a Police Officer in Los Angeles. On the Marine Corps Birthday, I was sitting in roll call as I am every morning.

The Watch Sergeant went around the room and asked if there was anything anyone wanted to add. It was my turn and I said, "Happy Birthday Marines" and got a resounding "OOH RAH," in unison from all of the Marines in the room.

The Sergeant, a West Point graduate, and veteran of Desert Storm, just lowered and shook his ...
