What battalion?

[Whitey]

lol yeah according to regulations unless you do it with the junior marine its considered hazing. b.s. if you ask me. sometimes making someone push till muscle failure is a better means of correcting them as opposed to giving them a page 11 or njp*shrugs*

Mountain climbers are worse than push ups if you ask me

So, I was looking at the graduation charts for MCRDSD and it says the company I'll be in, which is Echo company, but it doesn't say which battalion. Does MCRDSD only have one battalion?

[Quinbo]

LOL ... Echo company is in 2nd Bn. Just think of it as every four letters of the alphabet as the companys of that battalion. ABCD = 1st Bn. etc.

[dhenderson88]

Thank you very much Sergent.

[Quinbo]

To add to that in the fleet. There is generally no Delta, Hotel, or Juliet companys normally. Not sure why.

Cplkjspevak i agree with you bro, on the mountain climbers. Those bends and thrust sucked worse than push ups too.

This is unrelated to the OP's question.

Anyone know anythin about Alpha Company for MCRDSD? Is it hard unit to train in or what?

[darkgreen0311]

I was in Alpha Co MCRD San Diego all Companies are hard. It doesn't matter what company you go to. Or if you go to P.I or San Diego. Boot camp is boot camp.

Well what I ment was is there anything I should be prepared for specifically for that company, that none of the other companies do etc.

We had the classroom where you would drown in sweat never heard quarterdeck in my time but we had the pit.

the only thing they do different is how the mark ****, and some other minor **** they all follow the same training schedule. I remember i was on an island hopping campaign and we had like 3 recruits from each battalion in the pit. Was interesting. But hey we had a accelerated 92 go to 3rd. (We where first) and they wrote to us saying it was easier. But hey thats probally bs its all hard.

[darkgreen0311]

It was still called the classroom.
