I started readin up on the basics...apparently the English speaking people learn faster than Eastern European because french is similar to English and so different from Slavic language

Your buddy has good advice and you have the right mindset.

I feel like the Marine Corps dress deltas are probably the most panty dropping uniform of any military in the world. Although I was never into wearing uniforms unless forced to for inspection or it...

A buddy of mine got an entire sleeve removed (he just got a different sleeve inked on lol) but it looked fairly gone. I considered getting one on my chest removed so I can get something else. Maybe...

Oh I know about Bastile day, I'd be an idiot to join just to strut around wearing The Kepi le blanc for some French tang but I'd be a liar if I said I won't be in Paris doing just that if I get the...

Do pyramids and 1775s. 2 of the most basic workouts that do wonders.

Very good points, Im just biased towards mustangs haha. But they are right OP, the way I told you can take 10 years to do. If you're 100% committed and sure you'd like to be an officer than OCS would...

A good friend of mine who was a Lance Corporal right with me and got his honorable discharge a year after I did is in school now planning to go back as an officer. I'll give you some advice although...

Lol seriously just eat mcdonalds for every meal

Trust me the last year of my life I've been desperately researching them. I'm finally fed up with it and facing the facts that I have to try and join

I'm pretty excited to hear back from him. I emailed him, I think deep down most Marines are curious about the Legion.

I appreciate it guys, I'll most likely get back into PT shape over the next 6 months and maybe head to Paris next summer. Maybe I'll write a book and once and for all be able to compare it to our...

Yeah it's a harsh life, but to me (and Id assume to most infantrymen who enjoy what they do) the idea of it motivates me like a little high school boy who saw the Marine in his dress blues slay that...

The war was going on and I was nearing my end of high school with no real goal. I wasn't exactly destined for greatness so after much deliberation between the Corps or FFL I joined the Marines and...

I'm considering joining, I'm nearly 2 years removed from the Corps and I miss it but want something new and the Legion was the other option back when I was deciding which to do. Any of yall ever work...
