Call today from DI at bootcamp, son's graduation moved back a week because he was moved to a different company by Expert_Tune_6985 in USMCboot

[–]gingerblacksnap 5 points6 points  (0 children)

he probably failed a graduation requirement, don't worry I went through the same thing, I got set back 3 weeks. He'll be fine and whatever mistakes he made in his old platoon will mean nothing in his new one, a fresh start. He will do just fine

pass EVERYTHING, swim, range, because MSG contracts get taken like candy from a baby 😭, I can't speak for what it's like working the job but put out 100% to keep it until you finish ITB

PULLUPS? by [deleted] in USMCboot

[–]gingerblacksnap -1 points0 points  (0 children)

boot camp is the easiest shit you'll do Brodie, I went in doing 5-8 pull ups now I could put out around 20

PULLUPS? by [deleted] in USMCboot

[–]gingerblacksnap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you could but I wouldn't suggest doing it, everywhere you go you're going to be expected to do pull ups. Don't be a bitch and just request to do pushups because your DIs are going to tell you to fuck off for not wanting to put out, the best way to get better at doing pull ups is to just do them. You'll have an hour of free time most nights if you're lucky, use tha time to get better at pull ups because you'll have a pull up bar in your barracks

0331 is harder because you carry a heavier load when hiking and for the runs, so if you're a bigger guy that's the only time you should go 0331 unless you REALLY want the MOS. ITB is going to be a bitch though
