Country: | They just sounded the best out of all them to me, after talking to the recruiter and some former Marines my mind was made up, I was thinking "Damn! I wanna be a marine!"

| Its definately gonna be hard, no doubt about it. But there comes a time to give up the life of a lazy teenager and do something with your life, and for me this is it!

My recruiter has a few good ones, the only one I can think of right off the bat is about this guy in his platoon on his birthday his mom sent him this big shoe box full of tootsie rolls. When his DI found out he made him eat the whole box, he threw up for like 2 days straight

Country: | My brother dropped his underware at the feet of his DI during a midnight foot locker inspection. Scooping up the underware and standing at attention in front of the DI, the DI calmly asked him to jump into the air right where he was standing. When he did, the DI started screeming, "WHO THE HELL TOLD YOU TO COME DOWN!" He then made my brother jog around the barricks for the rest of the night with an underware on his head reciting to himself "I AM AN ASS - HOLE, I AM AN ASS - HOLE, I AM AN ASS - HOLE......"

Country: | JCS, good luck man! Having some Marines in my family, I am sure they would say Semper Fi. When you get closer to boot camp, I am sure there will be plenty of us full of good advice for you.
