Are we supposed to wear the garrison cover (piss cover) or the barracks cover or does it matter?
@joseduarte19969 күн бұрын
Garrison cover is always used to check in into a unit. I will be honest with you though, when I checked in to MCT and school house, I did it in cammies.

I remember when my brother graduated and I was in the truck with my uncle who was in the navy and he was wearing a shirt that said “the only good Marine is a submarine.” And the mps at the gate made him get out the truck and put him in the front leaning rest position.

I was a contract PFC but it was really a waste of time.. I get it though you want to get promoted fast but to be honest you cant really get ahead until you do many years in the fleet. Private PFC or LCpl makes no difference just get used to the fact your bottom of the barrel henchman. Nothing wrong with those ranks at all though! My time as a PFC was some of the best times ever!

Marines don’t do “basic training.” They do Boot Camp.
@mtmadigan824 ай бұрын
When you talk about promotions are more difficult, your right. But the Marines expect leadership at lower ranks. When we'd deal with other branches, e-3's in the Marines quite literally have responsibility that youd often see an e-5 in other branches. This isnt every mos, but in my experience there were much different expectations from the same rank outside the Marines.

I hit the fleet two weeks short of turning 21yo. Even at 21 and not being that far apart from the average 18-19yo boot, it was still difficult to relate to them. Now being 25+ even if you’re single, that’s even worse. All the Marines except for two I met in the fleet who were over 24 when they hit the fleet, they all did their four and got out and saw it as a waste of time. The older you get, the less you believe the bs from the Marine Corps. When I was a recruiter, I made sure I explained and emphasized to any polee who was over the age of 22 the cons of joining the Corps. I did the same to the 18yo polees who said they were going to do 4-8 years and then do the college experience with their GI Bill benefits. I emphasized going to college after the Marines is a great idea but at that point he will be considered too old for the college experience most 18-19yo freshmen fresh out of high school experience.

Pros: Free housing, free health/dental/vision insurance, free chows, discounts everywhere, GI bill, VA mortgage loans, camaraderie, looks good on your resume once you get your DD214. The best military uniforms: dress blues. The DBs make the ugliest Marine look mildly interesting lol. Cons: Toxic leadership, terrible living conditions, mediocre food, being treated like a child, micromanaging, things that make no sense such as field day, undesirable base locations (except for Camp Pendleton), mostly wearing cammies and not deltas, charlies, etc.
