I'm home for now.
« on: April 15, 2010, 02:43:02 PM »
Hey guys, over 3 months ago I was bussed in to Parris Island SC and graduated recruit training. I've been very busy, I've been home for almost a week now. I have an extended leave about another week, trying to help the recruiter, recruit new bodies. Then its off to school of infantry to learn more values and more tactical ways to kill.  It was a very emotional time on the Island. I do not recommend being quater decked on a daily basis, nor falling asleep on fire watch... Its great to be on familiar turf! Hope all is magnificent with you all!

Welcome back Marine.  Great to have you in our Corps.   Important question....how did you finish up on the rifle range?
