    Creation of the Marine Corps

    Most people believe that Samuel Nicholas created the Marine Corps. Actually, it was Congress itself. Samuel Nicholas was the first officer in the Corps as he was appointed the lead the Marine Corps by Congress and he was the first Commandant.

    Do you know where the truck is on PI?
    Do you know where a P-R-K E8 unit (said prick e8)is in the S-4?
    Who do you send a requisition to for a unit's grid squares?
    Do you know how many clicks to adjust when moving from the 200 to the 500?
    Were you on OFP while in?
    What is the proper way to lace your boots?
    Have you ever GAFFed off an NCO?
    Where did you buy your ghillie suit?

    Why is your MOS an 0317?

    When I became a SSGT I went from an 0311 to an 0369.
