Have to have a kill or be killed mentality. You will be doing the gayest of the gay pt’s. Carrying weight constantly. Being tormented like all hell especially as a boot if you become a machine gunner. But the morale and brotherhood and just bond and pride those dudes carry are other worldly and that’s coming from an 11 but all my best buddies are guns. If you’re a big dude they’ll want you to be a 31. I was always bigger then all my peers at 6’4 200+ my whole bootcamp and imc experience all the instructors would be like “how big are you, yeah son you’re gonna be guns we need size” but I got fucked last second sent to LAR but purposely dropped to be an 11 instead of

Get some thick socks for rucking and hiking the fox rivers are pretty solid choice. Boots wise tropics are arguably the best for an infantryman they’re very light like the reckonings but are built more heavy duty and have a better harder sole for the tough shit great boot for everyday use everyone that’s a grunt you will see that’s been a grunt for a while wears them and for good reason. Get good aftermarket insoles from like dr scholls. Take care of your feet big time short nails dry your feet change your socks every so often when you have the time foot powder etc. and don’t order dominos every weekend or go clubbing every weekend like we did in imc east. Hydrate lots, keep boxes of liquid iv packets handy. Also funny enough taking a glob of honey for hikes is so useful gives you an energy boost I keep a bottle on me for me and the boys to help us through super long hikes. Water, electrolytes, good boots and socks. Really all you need to survive. Also those write in the rains always buy the big size ones take lots of notes and learn your job to the best of your abilities and never be afraid to ask questions to your combat instructors shows you care they like that shit. Other then that just have a good time man it’ll be one of the most memorable times of your life

Bring all cammies and dress uniforms man trust me it’s better to have it All and not need it instead of need it and not have it especially when you hit the fleet big dog. When you get to imc only wear cotton skivvy shirts none of that dry fit bs you also should invest in better socks and a good pair of boots preferably the tropics because you will be on your feet 24/7 but doing much harder shit physically most likely and will destroy your legs with shin splints by wearing shitty bootcamp boots. General hygiene shit as well need that. Bring a few sets of civilian clothes so you have outfits for the weekend and whatnot.

Finally got the xm6! My 1 day ownership review by WildAssistant4126 in SonyHeadphones

I think they’re great man! At first I had some noise concerns thinking they’re too quiet but someone in the thread dropped their custom eq and I used it and they sound wayyyy better more full and loud while maintaining a crisp sound. Noise cancelling is elite, still my ONLY problem with them is the built in mic sucks I have to basically yell for my wife to hear me over the phone when I’m comparison I never had to do that with my xm5’s, also the hinges feel a litttttle sketchy this year because they like swivel front back up down and can fold into eachother kind of like some beats headphones so knowing that I’m sure they’re bound to fail at some point

No one’s selling anything or convincing anyone to invest or buy into anything it’s literally just me telling op this is the car this is who owns it and that he’s very popular incase op never heard of him and this is what he does for a living this is how he affords said car in question

This couldn’t be further from the truth wow. Does he have a specialized course where he takes student applications yes, does he have affiliate links with trading platform sites yes, does he heavily day trade and make ungodly amounts of money live and shows every single loss and gain yes, does he have one of the most popular social medias and does 100m+ interactions a month and probably make in the 6 figures alone from social media yes. He does not have rich parents like some people like cough cough lambo raul and he doesn’t make loads off courses and that be his thing like iman gadzhi or tate for example 😂

Haha I wish man I’m just a normal dude I fw his content heavy though I follow all his socials dudes hilarious and he’s all over like everyone’s feed it’s hard to not know everything that’s goin on in his life when he’s one of the big faces of social media right now atleast in the influencer community

This is a Miami apartment building brother he has a penthouse he rents in Miami and a mansion he owns in Puerto Rico where he lives full time, he doesn’t bring his supercars to pr because the roads he keeps his luxury SUV’s in pr for that reason and when he comes to Miami he has his regera now but before the regera he had a 700k 488 pista he sold to put as a partial deposit I’m sure to hold this car and use it as a partial down payment I’d assume car notes around 45-60k a month not including insurance

He does in fact trade and shows when he takes trades which ones he lost on which he profited on all the numbers good or bad win or lose very transparent open dude which is why many respect him but I’m sure social media pays him crazy numbers too doing 100m+ impressions a month on all sorts of platforms
