My Nephew Shipped Today to USMC Boot camp

[XDMAR]

My nephew from Maine shipped to Parris Island This morning. We are very proud, even if he chose the Marines (I served in the Army, hence my bias).

Congrats! A coworker of mine just had his son come back. He got his choice of presidential detail, he's excited.

Even if it isn't popular with the main stream media, tell him WE do appreciate it.

May your nephew be blessed in his new endeavor in service to our Nation.

Less than one percent of eligible youth are either qualified or motivated to serve.

May he, and you be well.

Marine here, 1990 - 1998.
Make sure you send him lots of goodies like candies and cakes and such. It'll make him REAL popular with his Drill Instructors!

Everybody knows the Marines are tougher than the Army.

Can understand the bias, but atleast he is willing to do what most men arent. But as others have said send him lots of goodies lol.

That poor guy is going through hell right now folks. They do it on purpose to process you at 3 in the AM. Sure hope he likes push ups.
If that was my son I would be proud. atriot:

Send him one of those girlie calenders with firefighters and such on it- My brother did it to me and needless to say..I was very popular with my DS's for a couple weeks. But it made memories ya know.

 

[RetArmySgt]

We had one guy in basic that his dad mailed him a box with a GI Joe, a Barbie and a Ken with a note to give one each to the Drill Sgt's. Needless to say it was a very funny site when DS opened the box the read the note out-loud. The DS's and that private became good friends.

 

[jeepinbanditrider]

I got a huge envelope from my dad's friends...........full of nudie pics from a motorcycle rally. The Senior let me look at'em one time then I never saw them again....didn't get them back at the end of Boot Camp either but then again when the said "DISMISSED!!!" I couldn't get off the depot fast enough lol.
