I just passed my 4 year mark, with a little more than a year to go (had to extend to deploy), and wanted to know if the stripes count as a personal award. They haven't popped up on my MOL records as...

I had a Master Guns once tell my group in a welcoming speech, "And don't date other Marines because that's incest!"

Actually, Obama never said that.

Pretty mild, really. Don't worry about it. As an E5 it'll be a cakewalk for you. You'll be more bored than anything else. Tell Gunny Certa that RadBn says hi.

If you're coming from a parent unit and not as a lat-mover, they usually allow you to stay at your parent unit's barracks if they're close enough. That's what they did with me. I was at Pendleton...

I went last year as part of MEWSS training. It's basically a grunt school and they'll treat the students as such. It's a little over a month long, with a heavy "emphasis" on study, which really boils...

0.o ...what?

Nah, we should just update our slogans.

The Marines....needs more generals.

I own a house in a nice area with an HOA, one that I finished building just before I enlisted. Soon after boot I got a call from an HOA rep asking some random question. I said I couldn't deal with...

It depends on your job. I've got a 99 with a 143 GT and I'm in the field constantly, deploying in November.

How is this "not talking down" to him?

Nah, I wouldn't. Having two 2-year degrees myself, one from the Defense Language Insitute in Arabic, and about 20 hours from my bachelors' in Middle Eastern Studies, I wouldn't know that. Not that I...

Just sayin' you've been in for about five minutes, and you want to pretend a guy your own age, not to mention has a college degree, is some little kid who's done nothing? I don't know why Marines...

These days it just seems to be the last resort of those who still believe in mass punishment...the logic seems to be:
We can't beat them anymore...
Not bad enough to dock their pay...
Let's just...

Okay mister joined-up-last-year, kid-sport-slick-chief.

It sounds like the best thing you could do is head to your local recruiter. Not only will they try to find a job in the Corps for you, their shops usually run a PT event every other day or so for...

I'm currently designing, and am in fact almost done with, an Access 2003 database meant to replace the horrible, awful TEEP Excel spreadsheets currently used in our battalion for personnel and...

You can change it in your profile options, under "Avatar".

Yeah, I think you are getting the runaround. There are currently several lat-movers in our platoon at 1st RadBn who haven't got their clearances yet, and they probably won't until they've finished...

Okay wow, gonna have to stop you there. I married a Mexican girl I went to high school with (married 5 years this month), whose parents are naturalized citizens. Her father worked on a ranch owned by...

Yeah, you'll just work out of the Marine detachment there. Lots of Navy go there too.

Right now you're pretty much limited to Pendleton or Lejeune, 1st and 2nd RadBn respectively. On paper you can ask for KBay or Fort Gordon, or England if you're an NCO, but I think that one's out if...

Hey Mark. I'm a 2671, and hit the fleet back in November. Yes, you can take your family to DLI. Take them with you when you check in! If you don't have them with you, they WILL jam your butt in the...
