U.S.M.C.

I want to know why all the other military branches and people in general talk down on the Marine Corp. They does and always will do more then any other military branch has.

I think some of the flack probably comes from the fact that they aren't considered one of the main military operatives, but there are plenty of them deployed overseas.

It's probably a perception issue. I don't really have any first-hand experience talking to any Marines, though. I wonder if it's an internal issue, or if it's just how they're viewed in general.

Well see all the individuals i know are in the marine corps and ive found that it tends to be the opposite way around. i find that the marines talk down on the other military branches just for the soul fact that they do do more than any other branch. but those same marines that i know also say that they are thankful for them at times. for example a buddy of mine was pinned down in a firefight and was about to be overrun when an airstrike was called in and saved aall their asses which in turn would be the airforce

See marines are in alot of operations. Im going into the marines and like i have talked to friends in the army and going in the army and the talk massive shit on the marines, the army is babied i think. they are soft and dont have to do as tough as stuff as the marines. The marines turn you into a war machine and teach you how to survive and actually be a warrior. Hence the name "Devil Dogs".

you see i find that funny for the soul fact that the army doesnt have a clue to what the marine basic training is like there is a reason why it called "the few, the proud..." its because most people wouldnt be able to survive basic. especially not the crucible which is a 60 mile hike over a day period over rough terrain with about 3 hours of sleep a night and 1 meal a day

its more like 52 hours now for the cruicibe lol and yeah the marines 12 week basic is sooo intense. and you know you will always have your brothers back in the marine and they will always have your. "Semper Fidelis"

its only 52 now? wow a lot i gues it was 3 years ago that my buddy di it

no 52 hours of non stop hicking and all that

I think that the marine corp and or the Navy seals is a pretty amazing and intense thing I have much deep respect for these men.

despite all the jokes i make about military ingeneral i do have respect for them and the only reason i make jokes in the first place is because of al the things they have done to my family in shaping it and other aspects

so your family has been in the military

some of them yes, but mainly just really really close friends of the family that we consider family

that is pretty cool.

yea and as much as i appreciate what the military does for our country i still will always have somewhat of a hatred from them as well, which is where all my joke about the military come from.

I have a few friends that are already in and or going into the military. I can not enter for medical reasons.

i thought about joining the military for the experince of it and for the benefits but all the people i ever went to for advice even some of them that were in the miltary said i should they said that i should find a way into college

Ya im kinda glad I cant get into it in some ways.

military would be amazing if the governament wasnt so jacked

true true thats kinda why i do want to leave the country but yet it is alot easier living in a meria than it would probably be leaving in a different country

yeah i know. i just want to move out in the wood our the mountains where i can live in peace and solitude and not have to worry about anything

same here but i want somewhere with a beach

yeah that is what my gf wants but im more of a woodsy mountain man type lol. she said she would give that up as long as we could go to the ocean once a year atleast

Lol can I be the only neighbor for miles?

yes! or for many rocks and trees

i just want somewhere warm enough to surf and play music till the sun goes down while i smoke the ganja and play music until the sun comes up
