least we dont line up like back in revolutionary war anymore. that can be said for every generation of marine. as time as passed technology/technique have allowed us to lose less people every war.

If you want to go military and you can get in the airforce that is the smart thing to do. Navy is a good second bet if you score high.



Monster I agree it is a lot more laid back than it was but I can tell you right now they still do shit at Paris Island that could fall into the torture category.

What were your ASVAB scores?

I ship to the MCRD in San Diego in Feb.



Your ASVAB scores don't even have to be that high. Right now, NG is the hardest to get into with a minimum total score of 50.

It's your line scores that mean something. They determine what jobs are available for you.



I don't know my line scores off the top of my head

everything but GT was above 100 i think

I got 62 overall.

I'm doing Aviation Mechanics

87 admin 86 general 98 electronics 93 mechanics



is that what the recruiter told u? i had to have color vision and a 70 in electronics to get in my careeer field and my career is one of the easier to get into. the government is not gonna let some joe blow off the street mess with their million dollar equipment. the ng is different then the ang or active duty air force.

i didnt mean to upset u monster dont verbal me pls im begging u. i was just saying lol

Because He's seen FMJ ofc lmfao

Dude the only bad thing about Paris Island is the bugs.

MCRD in San Diego is just as hard, and the Crucible is harder because of the Reaper. I don't think SC has the Reaper.

The Reaper is supposed to be intense my buddy Andrew did it about 4 months ago and told me about it

it's a 700 foot mountain that you can stand up on and touch it by putting your arm straight out. it's fuckin steep as hell.
