Ok, I think I'm pretty sure at this point that I would like to join the Marines. I would like to do the Reserves first and after training I would be able to switch to active whenever I wanted. If I went through bootcamp and decided I'd like to go further it would be awesome to go into Force Recon. I hope this will be something I can push myself through. I talked with my buddy Eric who went through it and he said most of bootcamp is more mental than physical. It's 3 months away from everyone you know in a new place with officers yelling orders at you. Sounds fun :) The second part of training is about a month and is combat training which includes martial arts and firearms. Eric told me this part was the most fun. Sounds like this could be an experience..... My test scores were very good to get in, double the average, which with how easy it was I wonder what half the people will be like there. At least that gives me better opportunities for advancement. If I perform well with training and do well with classes for my specified job I can rank up quickly. Not sure what I'd like to do yet, I'll need to look into it more. I also thought that joining the Marines would give me a reason to get a tatoo! Since I have no good ideas of my own it would be perfect for a marine logo somewhere on me, most likely my back. I'd be signing up in a few months and trying to leave in April or may, after Wrestlemania and all the busy holidays at the florist....
Idk, we shall see..
