Thanks Bullpup and Brewer.

Hello,

I would like to know when you do the official pft. Say if I enlist under the UZ contract and since Recon requires a 1st class pft, when will I do that pft? Right before I try out for Recon?...

It's the comfort factor. Going 17 years with running and working out without glasses to with them is a new thing. I tried using a pair while out running and I was not comfortable at all. They kept me...

It's not about how I look in them. I could careless about how I look or how I look around girls. I'm saying this because whenever I wear glasses for running or working out I feel it hinders my...

Very descriptive Achped!

Gotcha, thanks!

Hello and thank you for reading this post.

I would like to know if the pay is really as bad as I hear? From my calculations, someone just starting their career in the Marine Corps is going to make...
