Caught my first ever probe here back in '06. Got complacent and accidentally told the truth.

Yeah, back in those days this place was filled to the brim with wild-eyed warmongerers, salivating at the thought of dumping money and blood into the pocket of any folksy blue-haired noble who'd tell 'em what a big strong boy they are for keeping America safe from the evil-doers.

Just a total fuckin' freakshow. I wish you boys coulda seen it.

Did anyone else have a regular recruit huddle in boot camp where that recruit (you know the one- southern, naturally athletic, hid in the bushes on the final PFT to shave 3 minutes off his time) would say a prayer, and then everyone would get really intense,

And then the runt recruit everyone poo poo on constantly would pipe up and squeak:

THIS RECRUIT HAS SOMETHING TO SAY

And step forward, wearing comically too-big yellow'd whitey tighties hanging to his knees because that's what was left after the last mad scramble foot locker dump-and-wagon-wheel,

And he'd squeak something cliche and self-deprecating like,

HEY

IF I CAN DO IT

WE CAN ALL DO IT!

And everyone knew he was only at boot camp because his mom was banging his recruiter and wanted to get him out of the house?

I think about that guy a lot.

I hope he wasn't murdered by an ancient italian landmine planted by some other kid whose mom was banging a recruiter for taliban/AQI

This is my impression of a platoon sergeant who recently returned from the drill fields and never shuts the gently caress up about it:

(reading notes he wrote in crayon at the company office 5 minutes ago)

At 0700.. we have.. formation? In ..boots and ...utes?! BOOTS AND UTES ISN EVEN AN AUTHORIZED UNIFORM, MARINES (looks everyone in the eye)

I will never forget the time when I was on I/I duty and the company I/I himself, a captain, showed up for formation at 0730 with a black eye and his cammie blouse buttoned wrong from the top down so that each button was in the wrong hole, resulting in a bizarre top-down skewing reminiscent of an MC Escher sketch, and reeking of booze.

He got relieved (and hopefully courtsmartialed) for taking money out of the imprest fund and also using the unit’s credit card to buy booze and hookers.

He was replaced by an 0-3 who was very straightlaced but who also decided that our appointed place of duty two Wednesday nights a month was the Marine Corps League meeting, where we were forced to gladhand with ancient Korean War veterans, who would get really drunk and talk about how “we used to really gently caress up those gooks, just absolutely blow them away” and then sometimes vomit or fall on their face before their wives dragged them off, and all the time we were expected to stand ramrod straight and say “Absolutely outstanding, sir. Well done, sir.”

I will not name the unit but it might have been part of one that rhymes with “durst scallion, dented-third Marines”

Weird but also sick.

The daypack from the MOLLE suite. Big enough to carry a day's worth of poo poo but can be expanded using extra pouches. I still have mine 20 years on and I still use it for camping and road trips.

WHOA there.

While we are guests in other forums let's try to keep the voluntary disclosure of federal crimes to an absolute minimum.

And proceeded to rapidly shake my cheeks, evoking the simulated sounds of the heretofore forbidden act of romantic turd pushing.

Everybody stood and clapped (my cheeks).

And then I blow a chesty puller sized load on her big ol butt while her pale-faced weirdo bf yanks it in the corner because we forgot to lock the door to the entire 77th floor of George Soros' Horcrux tower or wherever it is cute senators drag their big brave internet posters to for a one-off night of danger-close hyper-fertile explosions w/time delay fuzes (lol that's USMC speak for MAKING BABIES u virgins wouldn't understand)
