Got a couple questions as a Poolee...

[Camper51]

Will you be happy doing what you are best at?? Or will you be happier at what you WANT to do???

That should be your answer...

[Achped]

Honestly I'd like to do both. Kind of like....Ron Livingston's character in Band of Brothers, still doing intel work but in an infantry unit at the same time.

I've pretty much narrowed it down to infantry, the only thing I'm worried about is getting stuck in a tank. That's the ONLY thing I would never want to be in. No particular reason, it just would seem boring.

Maybe I'll do intelligence.

You know what, I'm gonna go talk to my recruiter

The Thing about running is, the faster you run, the sooner you're done!

It all depends on how bad you want it...................

[Covey_Rider]

Hey I've got your same mindset and I chose intel...There are a couple Marines here on leatherneck that are/were intel and I would suggest talking to them for more information......

I think I'm gonna go for infantry.

I just got back from our pool function and man, it was so much fun. I used to hate them because I was in such bad shape, but now that I actually have endurance I enjoy it. I was in the front of the group screaming those cadences during our 2 1/4 mile run. I actually almost started to pass the Sgt leading us towards the end.

I want infantry. I'll push myself to do it, that's what its going to be.

Not true.

The collapse makes it difficult to mantain that gung-ho pace.

Ive never really had a weight problem, but I have been out of shape. I have never collapsed while running though!
