Just graduated Friday the 3rd, feels great. I would write a bunch to all the poolees on here looking for information like I was but I want to enjoy my leave for now and not spend several hours...

You're asking this in the wrong section man, because none of us poolees have been to boot yet. BUT, I can tell you a few things that my recruiter told me.

First off, you will be going to another...

That thing is sick, I really wish I had a bike they look like a lot of fun to drive.
Just out of curiosity since a few people on here really like their cars, is anyone going for Motor-T as their...

Lol I didn't even notice that. Oh well its my community pool parking lot, I don't remember the last time I saw someone in a wheelchair trying to get into the pool :)

You should post a picture of...

Haha yeah I know, cars are fun and all, but you can really get a good adrenaline rush on a fast bike. The only reason there is any debate at all between a busa and a c5 is because I live in FL and...

That's a really nice looking z71, and I'm not surprised you got weird looks because I've never seen a girl driving around in a lifted truck lol.

Haha no, my parents don't spoil me.

The camaro I bought 100% in cash right after test driving it, I also pay all of the insurance, gas, maintenance, and repair for it.

The mustang my parents...

Haha that is probably a much more intelligent approach. If it is a weakness, then his back is getting tired just after standing up for a while, so if his muscles are that much underdeveloped (which...

Yeah, you will want to listen to SoftballCatch23 and ask to have this moved because Poolees won't be able to offer you the same advice as Marines can.

Is your lower back just weak from lack of...

Oh, and one more tip, when you go to ask in the other forums, make sure you capitalize your "i"s and use proper punctuation (You left out a comma or period between "boot" and "i"). I'm not...

Hey man ask this in the "Ask a Marine" section of the forums. Most Marines on this site don't have the permissions to post in the "POOL (ee) HALL" so you aren't going to get any answers, and fellow...

Sorry, I figured out what was wrong. Mod please delete this.

Yeah I guess that is one advantage people nowadays have is a fair warning at least to what it will be like somewhat. From what I understand, boot camp was much more difficult back then as well,...

Haha alright. That first part of what you said makes perfect sense, I guess trying to prep for recruit training may be worse than just waiting till I experience it for myself, but so far I've got...

Thank you very much MOS for breaking it down and answering all of my questions. So far I've gotten the advice twice now to attend church so that is something I'll be sure to do while I am at PI. ...

Yes, of course, and I completely understand that, no one can expect to gain any information from this site that would make boot camp easy or even much less difficult. If it was that way, then boot...

Alright, I'll be sure to keep that in mind while I'm at PI.
Thanks Old Marine.

Thanks a lot Yonkers. I appreciate the advice.

Hey Marines. I have done a lot of research on these forums reading about other peoples' experiences in boot camp, on other websites reading articles and blogs, and also watching videos and films...

I've done some research and from what I have read there are no college benefits for members of the Marine Corps who are active reservists. Is this true? If so, what benefit is there to being in the...

Thanks, that's a huge confidence boost.

You are right I do have the body of a runner pretty much and I am very good at running both distance and sprints. As far as workouts go I weight lift 3 times a week in which I do bench press,...

Haha, I'm sorry, that's what I get for trying to write something when I am beyond overtired. Anyways, I've been to some Army PT with a few friends that are actually in the Army now and it was...

Hey everyone, I have a quick question if anyone wouldn't mind answering it for me. How do skinny people tend to fair in Marine Corp training?

I am 18 years old, 5'11", and I only weight about...
