Just wanted to state first off there's no reason to fear being IT'd or Smoked. When I went through in 07 I ****ed my Drill Instructor's off for extra training to make me better. Did they know that?...

Devilpup,

Why on earth would you post this in the open squad bay? The MOA is going to have a field day with this. Nice work.

Oops wrong forum

The FMF has that type of people in it to, but guess what? They are **** bags and you don't want to associate yourself with them. Being a leader is not about making yourself great. Being a leader...

Advice if you're going the officer route you really need to use correct spelling, capitalization, and punctuation. I would not recommend going the MECEP route but that's just me. One last thing....

One of my favorites was the Green Monster Series on youtube. The majority of that was fleet stuff, of which you may have not experienced yet.

Gale, Welcome to the family. Get some hard charger:evilgrin:

Railroad tracks...when I was a recruit in San Diego I never saw them..I guess I really didn't have to much time to look :P

I see your point but i'm just curious as I was not a 03 Marine, however I did belong with a group of them as a FRO..I might as well of been a grunt. Anywho I was curious if 03 Marines had secret...

Mike I would have to disagree with the ^ statement. I am a 0621 FRO and I was assigned to a infantry Btl. I know how the infantry works, and I met a good number of infantry Marines. In my unit the...

Great advice Cpl. I wish I would of went to college while I was in..might of gave me a chance to stay away from all the **** bags in my former unit. 3 man rooms sounds about right for a new join ...

Are you married? If the answer is no then more than likely your going to a barracks :). As for dogs not really sure, I don't remember my staff sgt having one..perhaps that was personal choice...

well from what I can remember walking into a Infantry Btl felt like a college party, and not the good kind. My advice to you is don't go infantry, won't do anything for you when you get out aside...

Now brothers/sisters correct me if i'm wrong..but I know if your doing something stupid like drinking and driving and hurt yourself, they can stuff you in the brig for "destroying government...

Nope..But I can in parade rest :D

If your really having problems with pullups you could use bands to simulate the motions. On top of that what I would really recommend is having your feet on the edge of a chair, and use your...

Swimming is probably a very good idea. Might I suggest that you get comfortable swimming in boots and clothing. It feels completely different than swimming in trunks.

To answer your question mine was simple: Telling the drill instructor's everything I thought. You know they love you when your kill hat refuses to train you anymore.. Bootcamp to me was a blast...

Sigh...USMC92...I am a radio operator of which was with a grunt btl. Please use the search function of the forum and found the long replies I wrote about the topic on a 0621. It really irritates me...

sffinnegan,

You may say you wish to be attached to a grunt btl right now, but wait till you go to bootcamp, through combat training, and com school. If at this point in time your still motivated...

Welcome to the family.

Southerner- no doubt. You’re never one to pass up a good laugh and leading is never a problem. You have experience and you use that wisdom to get you and you’re friends through trouble. Good hearted...

I am not sure how often reserve units do hikes with full gear, flak and Kevlar. I know as a radio operator your going to much prefer carrying an prc 117F in your pack rather than the prc 119. As for...

You know i'm almost certain you can take language tests in the Marine Corps and if you pass them you get the pay upgrade for sucessful completion. Any other Marines hear about this? If that is the...

Josh,

Your best bet is to wait until you are in the FMF. When that happens ask your NCO's how to get into a fast platoon. They will either tell you to go **** yourself or give you a answer. The...
