    From a former Gunny, congratulations and best of luck. Keep your head together, understand its a proven process you're going through and its gonna hurt real bad sometimes, and don't lose sight of your goal. Its the hardest thing you'll ever do but nothing will make you more proud. We need good people so work hard everyday, all day long.

    And don't forget, Marine is ALWAYS spelled with a capitol "M!"

    That is why we have freedom of speech. You’re just as bad as the president if you ask me. Trying to take away more or right rights.

    I just wanted to know if there was a specific reason you would just up and join the marines. Honestly I could never find myself volunteering to join something unless I was very passionate about what it was doing. I have 2 brothers that joined the marines and 1 that joined that army. My step father was in the Air Force. They pretty much all joined because they really didnt have any other choice or at least thought they didnt. Just curious if thats why you joined as well.

    I got drunk and stumbled into the recruiters office, I thought I was signing up for a free pedicure.

    I think the Patriot Act makes even publicly talking about killing the President a criminal offense.

    (Good luck in the Marines! I've known a lot of them over the years. Aside from their general craziness and ocassional "masculinity issue" they're an heroic bunch of guys, and always great in bed.)

    I remember hearing on the news some 14 year old girl said that on myspace, and the secret service arrested her and interrogated her, she was crying and everything. She was a hottie too. That is what it is all about, using a position of authority to take advantage of young girls.

    Your profile states that your location is Canada...are you Canadian?

    As a former recruit myself, I didn't know that the Marine Corps recruits foreigners.

    I know recruitment is at or near an all-time low, but I didn't think the military would ever get that desperate...

    If you're from the states, my apologies, and more power to you.

    Best of luck and Godspeed.

    No disrespect meant to you guys, I honestly think you are all great, very brave, we would be lost without guys like you. I Just think it sucks that you have to fight political wars while bush and blair sip on cocktails.
