Hello everybody, I am a Poolee and wanted to know were i can get free Marine gear or Marine items; raging anywhere from posters to clothing. I asked my recruiter but he doesn't have many things to give out so if anyone can give me a website or a location near Inglewood CA were i can get free stuff, Thank you!

Nothing is free. Go to sgtgrit.com or visit a military museum

As Nerd said, nothing is free. Sgtgrit.com has many Marine Corps shirts and accessories and posters. They also sell utility covers which I surprises me because how are nonMarines suppose to wear those.

go to your RS, in the back there should be boxes of stuff, ask your recruiter if you can have some of it... if they don't care it's now your free stuff.

My Recruiter doesn't have anything either, the old Recruiter took everything with him. Ebay's got some pretty cheap stuff, and usmcblues.com has some moto shirts and whatnot. I got some covers on ebay for incredibly cheap, but SgtGrit has a lot of good stuff too. Hell, they have everything down to Marine Corps toilet paper. Legit, it has EGAs on it.

Seriously, take this to PM's or something. Don't make another thread a pizzing match.
On topic...this isn't the Army. I respect them, but I don't agree with handing out tons of stuff like they do. I think I heard they might even have get a set of ACU's or those new uniforms. If you want "free" stuff, come out of boot camp a Marine.

Meh, they give you the poolee shirt when you enlist, good enough for me. I don't really feel the need to walk around going "hurr durr look at me everyone I'm enlisted". Because honestly, no one really cares... they think you're stupid, crazy, gonna get killed, whatever.

Nope. That's wrong too. Every bit of your gear at bootcamp will come out of your paycheck
I'd much rather voice my opinion here so everyone see's it, but, alrighty
One thing you must know about that poolee, is that he generalizes everything based on what he knows, what he thinks he knows, and what he imagines up with his very strange mind.
Around my hometown, people are in awe of me being in the Marine Corps DEP. I have been approached tons of times by veterans and civilians and been given a handshake or a pat on the back accompanied with a "thank you for serving our country"
Kids at my school know me as "The Marine Kid" and a lot of them think it's badass.
Just because nobody likes AlexJH (which is not suprising) doesn't mean nobody likes other poolees.

Ah nice. Glad you posted that, i remember i found out everything "issued" will come out my pay check. Go read about it yourself, guys.
I get the I will die bid all the times. They do find it badass and all and i am the only kid in my high school shipping for the rest of the year, my friends always say " your going to die, dont go!" lol. Its what ever though, we all the know the risk.

I hate those damn kids who say that. The kinds of people who say that think that every swinging d*** in the military is a rifleman and nothing else. A buddy of mine is enlisting in the Air Force and people are begging him to be careful over in Afghanistan. Whatever. Freakin' idiots don't know what "POG" or "desk jockey" means, and I don't mean to insult you if you're not a POG, but seriously, enlistment doesn't equal death, it just equals possible danger
