A Day in the Life of an Infantry Corporal

[@OneGenericName]

Men like him are the core of the Corps. Semper Fi.

[@travisrichter5830]

I was so proud the day I picked up corporal. Best rank ever. Semper fi

[@rossbabcock3790]

Yeah, crossing that NCO threshold was pretty cool. The officers may make it 'rock', but the Marine Corps NCO's make it 'roll'! The backbone and sinew of the Corps!

[@42088cowboy]

i was like this as a lcpl nice i been a cpl now for little over 1 year pick up sgt soon i was 0311 then changed to 08 in for life

[@baileylevingston9223]

42088cowboy are you still in 08?

[@42088cowboy]

yes I am

[@J.Roberts33-02]

42088cowboy what is an 08?

[@storman4482]

J. Roberts artillery I think

[@innonativeoutdoors]

I did not know Wilford Brimley was a Marine Corporal. 0_0

[@BushidoDevilDog]

He was able to get a waiver for his die-a-beet-us...LOL!

[@arturoinguanzo8924]

+Bushido Devil Dog that made me laugh harder than it should lol

[@gennymikel4296]

People like these are the reason I get extremely offended when some foreigner has the balls to bash the US and even worse when an American bashes America and calls the country names. I'd pay money to see one of these people say that to the face of a military person.

[@maineoutdoorsman677]

It’s how much responsibility u want more responsibility higher rank .thank you for kicking ass an outing the fear of America in them .🇺🇸👍

[@andyayemin5726]

SEMPERFI brother, we r indeed the bac, bone, of our CORP. cpl, 1/2. 3rd platoon.

[@stevenf2238]

Do many enlisted Infantry Marines serve 20 years?

[@marines]

The amount of time you serve will depend on how many times you re-enlist, if any. It is not MOS specific.

[@jamessakimae9655]

+Marines do you have the option of possibly getting a new mos if you re-enlist?

[@MylesKillis]

+James Sakimae yes

[@ibaitedyuh]

Steven F they can or re enlist or retire

[@J.Roberts33-02]

In my experience the majority of us Infantry Marines do our 1 enlistment and then think the grass is greener on the outside, so I would say 1 and done overall.

[@subscribe8612]

Why does this marine get a side arm ?

[@AussieRoberts]

+Subscribe Most likely a Squad Leader, SL get Side Arms, maybe even Fire Team Leader

[@rjulmer1]

+Aussie Roberts aren't all marines issued a sidearm?

[@BushidoDevilDog]

No. The weapon you are issued depends on the Table of Organization billet you are fulfilling.

[@pauld4355]

lol... this is an old corps question.Things have changed gunny

[@hml3672]

Marines are tough.

[@J.Roberts33-02]

What unit Kristel? 2/2 Warlord right up the road from ya.

[@rossbabcock2974]

Yeah, Marine corporals make it rock! Did not like getting my blood stripe though!

[@MEHboi616]

Semper Fi!

[@frankodom9537]

Same rank as I was. Corporal

[@airplane0747]

Good deal.

[@maxcolley8037]

Not matter what, I’m going to be in the Corp. But I just can’t decide whether or not to enlist after college or to shoot for an officer commission. While the pay is high for an officer, and allows for more growth, enlisting as a corporal gives me access to opportunities such as scout sniper school, I just can’t decide. (And I know I may be getting a little ahead of myself.)

[@clayton6161]

you dont enlist as a corporal

[@atiqullahomaid5602]

American Soldiers

[@tv101]

US Marines bro! fix that shit

[@barbarawilcox9513]

show no weekness

[@rossbabcock3790]

Marine Corps infantry.........yeah, that warrants and Oorah! Take 5 dogs! Fall out, set security, punch your bores and change you socks. Pop blisters and use moleskin. Hydrate and salt pills, don't drink too much and cramp up. It's fun being a 'mom'!

[@Boot1998]

Reppin the 518

[@williamlennox9115]

[@br3edage]

3 1/2 years to become a E-4? lol!

[@tomrugger8447]

br3edage fuck you pog

[@doublemeatjesus]

this dudes been doing actual marine shit too, who woulda thunk it?

[@wcanaday234]

My son left a Cpl. He had a tendency to do Marine things while off duty. Even with the assistance of the Navy brig and MPs, it took him a while to stop being so much like his Dad and Grandfather (who, as Pvt. 1st in the Army, still directed the telephone rewiring of Berlin during the occupation. My Dad had the distinction of making Cpl several times.)

[@atiqullahomaid5602]
