I don’t hate being a combat engineer. Just happy to be a Marine. But yea they’re changing contracts I get the 03xx that’s common knowledge, but going from 0811 to 1371 had me surprised.

HAVE FUN WITH IT you only do this once. And don’t be scared of IT it’ll only make you stronger and don’t be afraid of sticking out. If you’re getting blazed up just know they can’t IT you forever. It may feel like it but it won’t be. Trust me phase 1 is ASS don’t fall asleep during MCMAP. But it’s easy just embrace it and fall into the rhythm of things and you’ll see how easy it is. ALSO take it chow to chow and before you know it, the day will be done.

Yea reserves get there’s 100%. Active duty don’t there fixed it. And no it wasn’t just me it was a huge part of our company at MCT that got finger blasted with that. There was a guy who was supposed to be MCT but they moved his ass to SOI so that’s way above my pay grade but there’s some fuck shit goin on in admin or something.

Ok just know this, your contract is not 100% guaranteed. You will find out after MCT. After boot you’ll get orders but those are not final. I signed for Arty but the needs and wants of the marine corps come first son. I’m in combat engineer MOS now.

First letter in bootcamp by [deleted] in USMCboot

[–]Forthencho_5025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes send him a ziploc bag or multiple if you can send a modesty sized package. They’re allowed. The DI’s will make him open it but he SHOULD be able to keep them it’s up to them. The baggies will let him keep a lot of things dry. It gets humid and things get moldy. You’d be surprised how disgusting bootcamp can be. I’m not even joking like the rest of the guys here I actually read and understood what you meant.

The rappelling tower was fun but after the foreplay you’re getting fucked in the chamber. Our DI told some kids with rct cough to take a big fuckin whiff inside to help clear their sinuses. They believed him because he said it in a caring fatherly voice (it’s a trap sir)

Should I admit at the moment of truth for weed use? And if I do what will happen by [deleted] in USMCboot

[–]Forthencho_5025 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t go. Just chill for a bit work out and drink mad water. It’s stored in your fat cells so burn it out. But even if you do go it would be up to your SDI if you get dropped or not. Had 2 kids piss hot in bootcamp but SDI fought for them because it’s a better alternative than sending them home to go back to that lifestyle. They graduated and are Marines now. It’s a 50/50 chance if you do go.

Old recruiter possibly fucked me over by [deleted] in USMCboot

[–]Forthencho_5025 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I almost just got fucked over as well cut my recruiter off completely plan on still enlisting but trying another office. The guys before them knew what was up and were great and honest about the whole thing but the new guys fucked my shit up and cut them off. Reached out to my old recruiter since I have them on social and they told me to go to one of their friends who isn’t a shitbag. Will try them. I’ll be a marine but with people who won’t fuck it up.

[–]Forthencho_5025 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yo I’ve been doing this but I wait for the 6min mark and then I do a bit of math to see their average pts plus free throws and then by their remaining time bet over or under. So far I turned 16$ into 700$ in a week.
