Hey everyone, I'm on Sunday Liberty down here in San Diego. I'v been having a blast. Already shot the M203 and thrown an M67 frag grenade. Tomorrow I get to fire the M249g, oh yeah, so motivating. I...

I just got back from Boot and my squad leaders were chosen on their ability to drill at first but then they screwed up and got fired and other recruits who were leaders got picked so just keep on...

Oh my platoon spent a lot of time at the beach, it was nice. We even went on a Sunday once. Good luck and God's speed.

You motivate me Drill Instructor. Heh

I didn't have this problem but I know a few guys who did. My suggestion is if you can, save up some money before you leave and have a friend or family member pay your bills while you're gone....

Here and I was told to never start anything with sir. Heh I guess that goes to show you that not all companies are the same. Same goes for aye sir, it's aye aye sir. I don't know how many recruits...

Congratulations on possibly the best decision you will ever make. Boot camp will be your right of passage once you graduate you will earn the title of Marine (Devil Dog) until then you are a...

I mean the way they train recruits, Twice my Drill Instructors got yelled at for ITing us to hard. We were never allowed to be nasty like some of the other companies were. When we went up north we...

Hey everyone,
I finally made it back from MCRD San Diego. Little did I know when I signed up for the Corps that I would get a chance to be picked up in and graduate with Fox Co. The hardest...

There is a fine line between entertainment and just flat out derogatory remarks. I think this guy needs a swift kick in the a**. It might have been funny if it was a Iraqi military guy who knew...

I was in my recruiters office the other day and I accidentally called my Ssgt a Sgt (I had known him as Sgt for about a year before he got his promotion) it just slipped. I got PT'd in the office for...

I'd like to beat the **** out of those responsible, but killing everyone wouldn't do any good. Kinda pointless to try and free a country if everyone in it is dead.

Ash has a point, you know those Navy guys lol.

I understand where you're coming from, while my mom wasn't against me joining the Corps, she is against pretty much everything else. She is very overprotective, but I guess that is for the best. Give...

I think you need the GED, I know a couple guys that made it in up here with them. You should probably just go talk to a recuiter.
Best of luck.

Speed - I think he ment that his family kept all the letters he sent, as I noticed they are all from him and no replies.

Thanks guys, I'll look into those. Unfortunatly between work, an IST pool function, and trying to get a law changed, I don't think I'll have anytime this weekend.

These letter should help a lot, I think I'll start practicing some of the things he mentions. Sitting cross-legged is going to be a -----.

Hey guys,
I have a report this semester for government class that is seven pages long. I hate writing but I decided to do it on a topic I like. The history of the Marine Corps. So any books or...

The scarlet stripe represents sacrifice, it is also know as the "blood stripe" and it was earned in "the halls of Montezuma."

As for the Scarlet uniform I can only guess that it would be a high...

Hey guys and gals, just wanted to wish everybody a happy v-day. I hope all of yours' are as good as mine.

I have always admired GySgt Ermy. I think that a promotion for him was not a bad idea. I'm sure if he had not been medically discharged that he would have gotten the rank. Don't get me wrong I also...

I leave June 7th. As far as the heat goes, bring it on! I used to live in California, then my parents and I moved to Idaho. There is a foot and a half of snow in my front yard, as I recall we had...

I found the part that said what would you do and the people responding "duh, I don't know" kind of funny. Makes you proud to serve/want to serve your country doesn't it?

Thanks for the welcome. As far as my sister goes I think she said something about changing to the Air Force when her 4 years are up if she decides to continue with the military. She wasn't sure...
