Any Marines?

[Guest clermitarpite]

I'm looking for anyone who has the experience of being a Marine to offer me friendly advice. I'm thinking about becoming a Marine, but I have a few simple questions. Does stealing happen often on bases, should I keep my good clothing at home? What's a typical day look like once you get stationed somewhere, the recruiter didn't bother to go in depth all I was told is that it starts at 7:30 and ends at 4:30? How good are the combat sports, or just recreational activities on bases? Do people usually end up with the top picks of the jobs they want? Thank you.

does TS refer to joining the US Marines?

 

When i was training in US with the Marines, I'm told that any Tom, D1ck or Harry can join their force if they can pass their security check and "BMT".

 

My take on signing on:

Dun just follow and sign blindly.

Choose a vocation you like to see yourself excel in.

Choose the right service, meaning Air Force, Army or Navy. In this case Marines. The same vocation may experience different job scope in the different service.
