Marine Corps Uniforms

I made this video to inform everyone on each of our uniforms in the Marine Corps.

Guys you can wear your cover in a vehicle so stop bugging about it

[@truthsourcenetwork2930]

yut!! THANK YOU BROTHER

[@onebolt91]

Yes, you can. But it is about the second most boot thing you can possibly do, aside from wear your uniform home on leave (which my boot ass did, twice- Navy '10-'13) or get married in your dress uniform (made the same mistake with my first marriage). Honest question: with his cover on and only got the GWOT, is he on Boot Leave/Recruiter Assistance from the Island or the Sandbox?

[@jrw17]

First off, I had it on for the aesthetics of the video. Secondly, if someone wants to wear their dress uniform for their wedding, which I did, it's okay to do. We are proud of being able to wear it. Finally, this video is almost 3 years old. I was home on Christmas leave/ RA and wanted to make a video. I'm a Corporal now and am almost at my 4 year mark.

I then joined the Marines and went to Bootcamp at Parris Island SC. Plt.3034 Hotel Company. Had 8 years Active Duty Marines and 8 in the Reserves. 2005 we were getting deployed back to Iraq. I had a small heart attack on the Drill hall floor . I wish that I could do it all over again. I love the Marines. Hope that I can get a new Dress Blue Blouse.

That would be CVS , and Marines aren't allowed to simply take OTC drugs without permission from their stations medical control. If his squad leader or sergeant had any issue with this marines sniffing, they'd send him to sick bay, where they'd give him a non-prescription decongestant, or something to dry him up without effect upon his ability to perform his required duties. A lot of Marines have issues with their noses turning into faucets in the cold or heavily pollinated areas.

[@wpcampbell491]

You missed the President's Own Marine Corps Band Uniform, which has a wicked cool Crimson and gold version of the Class B Dress Coat (with high "leather " collar). When I first saw those Marines, it was kind of weird seeing U.S. Marines wearing nearly the same colors as our country's first military adversary, -the British redcoats!) I haven't seen them in 20 years , so I think that uniform may have been discontinued as was the old US Marine Corps (Officer's State Function/Ball Evening Dress White Class A Dress Uniform, - Senior officers would wear sashes and swords with!) Great video, Marine. Keep them coming. Semper Fi

I know I missed them on purpose. I also missed the Commandants Own. I only covered the basic uniforms that Marines wear.

[@wpcampbell491]

@@jrw17 I saw a couple of Marines wearing what appeared to be Class Bs, but both had flawless Kakhi "Polo-style" Jackets without rank or EGA insignia on them. That was in 2015. Both were at least full corporals because they both had their blood stripes on their dress pants. There's no recruit station or bases nearby, so I think they were trying to get the lower classes of their high schools interested.

Both of my grandfathers were in the army and Airforce my army grandpa was commanding a machine gun squad in World War 2 that required multiple men to carry the ammo, the gun, and whatever they used to hold it up. My dad told me that there was this big strong dude that could carry the whole gun in one piece and fire in no time. I don't know what happened after that. My Airforce grandpa was probably in a war or 2 that my mom never told me about. He died in a car crash possibly before I was born.

You'd wear the assigned uniform of the day. The long and short sleeve depends on the time of year. Long sleeve for when we go sleeves down, which is the colder part of the year, and short sleeve during sleeves up, obviously the spring and summer months. The coat would be worn by the platoon and company honormen to distinguish themselves above everyone else

You have to have a high school diploma or GED. That being said, with a GED, it's not guaranteed. The better you score on the ASVAB, the better your chances of getting in are. With your record, as long as you don't tell them anything, they wont know. They'll try to tell you stuff like they're gonna do an FBI background check and that kind of stuff to scare you, don't believe it, they cant do it, they don't have the power to. They only know what you tell them and nothing more.
