Well the thing is that I still have a few years to go before I can become a Marine. So I was wondering, if there was anything I could do now, that would help me when I become a Marine.
Thanks.

Chain Breaker,
Seeley covered the basics. But if all you do for the next 2 years is read these forums then thats one heck of a start. You'll notice the fine line of respect showen from Poolees to former and active duty Marines. SHOW THAT SAME RESPECT. Granted you're pretty young, and your choice of future career is likely to change. I was 13-14 and knew exactly what I wanted to do (Marines) and look at me now. For now, keep your head level on your shoulders and support the Men and Women who are headed out. Any other Q's just ask!

Chain Breaker,
I'm sure they will let you know and it won't be pretty. Just don't take it as an insult if you get yelled at for doing something wrong even if you didn't know you did it wrong. It happens and you just need to admit that you did a wrong and learn from it.

But just have a reason(don't even have to be a good one ) and I wont mind.

Afirimative on do what you know is right without being told.Even when leaders are not watching!(novel idea?)respond with energy and positiveness always.Remember,they can kill you but they can't eat you!(They get demerits)

Integrity is what you do when you know no one is watching.
It is also what you do when you don't care who is watching.
(Scratching your butt may be an exception to rule #2.)

In line with what FirstSgtMike said:
The measure of a person's real character is:
"What they would do if they knew -
they would never be found out."

Another one:
"Watch what people are cynical about,
and one can often discover
what they lack."

So I am a female who wants to join the marines. I have been in the young marines for almost a year now. Is that good? Is it really going to help me for the marines? And is there anything else besides what you have been saying on here that I should know. I will be leaving in about a year mabey a little longer.
Thanks.

Megan75,
You wrote the same question twice in different ways and got both of them wrong.
