Well played Sir. :beer:

I respect the Marine Corps infantry just as they seem to respect any 11-series. I've met quite a few Marines who were kind of arrogant towards me then found out I was an infantryman and they said "Oh, you're alright with me." Probably because we do the exact same job, and can empathize with having to live in a 2 room hut with 10-12 other dudes and no power for a year, surrounded by assholes who would sneak in and cut your head off if they got the chance.
USN or USMC...Army is for people who can't hack the Marines...USAF is for people who really DON"T want to be in the military....
I know I will hear about this one from others..

I'm an R.I. here at 4th RTB on Fort Benning. come on by, I'll sort ya out. :beer:
KNowing what I know now...location location location
The Army does not do "water front property" I would have gone Marines if the recruiter would have hurried his a$$ up. But at age 17 I didnt give a crap about water front. Example....Fort Irwin California vs Camp Pendelton, Oceanside Ca.....I was very very impressed with that post.
I'd go with waterfront property as an optional assignmet, you wont get it in the Army

My point is: YOU make it what YOU want out of it. All the services have their unique niche but they all have at least one thing in common, above and beyond the discipline, self confidence, motivation... etc, management of time, personnel, and resources. The good thing about this is you can begin gaining this experience almost as soon as you join.
The USMC gets rides from the Navy
The USMC gets paid by the Navy
dont ****ing do it, go to college and go in as an officer
THIS! if my son wants to join when he's older you can bet your ass i'm making him go to college before. Officer lifestyle is so much diff. :nonono:
Army is for people who can't hack it in the Marines? Yeah, you'll definitely catch flak for that. Here's some incoming now. Want to jump out of planes? Don't go USMC. Want to be able to choose your job? Don't go USMC. Want to be Ranger or Special Forces? Don't go USMC. Don't want to get stuck on a ship for 6 month floats? Don't go USMC. That said, two of my closest friends are former Marines (both of which I met in the US Army), and I have nothing but respect for Marines and the USMC. In my experience, they are the most disciplined of all branches.
dumbest thing one could type.
