Oops. Mods, can you close out this thread?

I might have to take that idea, slightly modify it, and give it a shot. That sounds delicious.

Anyone interested in a cooking thread?
Today I'm mixing heavy and light. Sweet and savory. Served with a smile and under the hopes my kids love it.

I'm leading with acorn squash cut in half with...

Has anyone gotten out and joined another branch? I've been out for about 2 weeks now and I was thinking about going into the Army Reserve as a Medic until I get my degree and commission as a medical...

All I can say is it's about time

I guess for veteran discounts it's a lot easier to show my DL than take around a beat up copy of my DD-214. Same same with getting pulled over (but even though I'm 28, I drive like an old man and...

Still there. You're guaranteed a general field though.
OP's son might not be Military Police - he might be corrections.

Aside from that the only time that Needs of the Corps kicks in is for...

My favorite one was when I was a teenager around 2001 or so on a family trip to Ohio. At a flea market, my dad, a retired Gunny saw this older fellow wearing a Marine Corps Vietnam Veteran hat. A...

Yeah, that's what I figured. I looked at the state's website and couldn't find anything else.

What likely happened is your boy's recruiter had someone back out of the DEP and he needs his numbers. Nothing is official until he no-crap ships. Talk to your son. Let him know that unless he...

Semper fi, brothers.
I just got my NC driver's license today (well the temporary one until I get the real one). I read online that if you're a veteran and provide your DD-214 you can get a Veteran...

Well it came out pretty good. Turns out my oven only goes down to 170 instead of 130 but it turned out good. I'll have to make more and share. I got a little impatient and had to test it out early....

First time I heard that song my heart just filled up with pride for the Corps.

I honestly believe that if O (no) tries to do anything to take away Sgt Meyer's Medal of Honor based on the word of the ANA (which is about as trustworthy as a bipolar sociopathic meth head) that the...

I can't call myself a man until I make my own jerky. Well, tonight, I'm going to start becoming a man. I have my jerky in the marinade right now.
Tomorrow when I'm done getting dressed for PT, I...

Well I wish you peace and many blessings and for success in your future Marine Corps Career. If I may derail the thread for a brief moment, have you decided on your MOS of choice and/or career field...

I've had many good friends in the Corps who went on to Recruiting Duty and came back one rank lower than they started. The number one reason was for dishonesty: Either telling their poolees/recruits...

Honor. Courage. Commitment.
If you plan to start your Marine Corps career with a lie, you are off on the wrong foot. Honesty is the best policy, young lady. Get it removed and come right or don't...

Not an ordie here, but I hang out with ordies all the time. The place to go is O Level HMLA squadrons. You work with the hellfire, sidewinder, rocket pods of all kinds, and machine guns out the...

You'd best not get any tattoos either.

If you can't pass a CFT then you need to GTFO before you ever get on the yellow footprints. It's not that hard.

The Marine Corps has more games than Milton Bradley. If you want to willingly violate the tattoo policy, stand the freak by for some silly games. Do you like duty? You'll get a lot. Do you like...

If my Re-Enlistment with SDA is not approved, I'll be in your shoes here soon, partner. I was talking with some Air Force Reserves out here with me (weird being told a few times by an E8 to call him...

If you are aiming to meet the minimum standards, you are bound to fail in the Marine Corps. If you want to scrape by with good enough, then you need to find a different service to join. Your goal...

That's the main reason I want the duty. I love Marines and I love teaching. I look forward to be able to influence new Marines and I'm very excited of having the honor of training freshly minted...
