When one is SL, how do you motivate or 'keep people in line' if you get your patrol on the last day. At PR I got my patrol also on the last day--everyone was dragging ass and didnt give a fuck. Best way to do this is to bust your ass every day when other people are in charge and help as many guys w...

....and instead formulating many of your values based on exposure to an inferior culture? I think I could really start to like this place. :D As to foreign students, we did have one dude from Finland. I thought he as an OK guy, if not a bit chubby. The RIs had a time with him one morning during PT ...

I thought this was a pretty cool thread, especially the posts made in the beginning by Slowpoke and Steadfast. When I came in on AD, there were still a couple of Vietnam vets in the reconaissance units, and I even got the opportuntiy to work on a team with the TL as a 1st Sgt (unusual for the Corps)...

....The link you provided was about the 1st Marine Division. Do you have any more links regarding the 3rd Marine Division & including FR? I would be very interested in reading the subject matter of combat jumps performed and how often combat jump happened.... SF, All that I have been able to fi...

I think the article says the lowest ranking Marine is a SSgt (E-6). The reason of the jump appears to be mor...

Thanks guys....

This is the kinda stuff that leads me to think that "someday" the Europeans are gonna be in a world of hurt when the Huns (or whatever agressive and extremely hostile bunch of warriors) come over the hills and into their lands to kick their asses, take their women, and throw the men hogtie...

It IS some funny shit.

If those two guys can't laugh at this when (and if) they see it, then they don't have enough sense of humor to be in that office....

Thanks dudes. That ANYONE actually reads my posts on SOCNET is a real boost to my ego. I had pretty much figured that my posting on a thread was a surefire way to cause it to die off.... :D

Hello all. A good friend of mine (Leatherneck) told me that there were a bunch of cool dudes hanging out at this site. So I thought I would stop by and say hello. Real quick intro (because its kinda embarrassing to talk about yourself). As my profile says, I was in the Corps for about 10 years (not ...
