Thanks, dude! I told myself these when I was in the process of enlisting. People were telling me that I was crazy. I believe in myself, so screw them! I'd like to see them grow the balls to enlist in the USMC. Until they do, I know that I'm am a man with dignity.

Hey the same thing happened to me. When I enlisted everyone told me i'm retarded and that I am gonna be a bullet sponge. They are just a bunch of wimps. My favorite quote is "As I walked through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil because I'm the badest mother@@@@ in that valley!"

Typical. You should have teased him about the little sailor hats that they get. Or reminded him that "In the Navy" was sung by a bunch of gay guys.

Oh well. He was real dumb anyways.......he said he smoked alot of weed. I was mad though that I had to share a hotel room with him. At meps there were like 200 people enlisting and out of these only about 10 were for the Marines. It just goes to show ya..... if it is hard no one wants to do it. The best things in life are hard to achieve.
