This co-ed summer camp integrated politically "woke" Marine Corps will prove to be flat out useless if this sh*t isn't stopped cold. Based on today's standards, men will be allowed to wear drag make up and surgically join the newly adopted women at San Diego, and the women will be allowed to take their no longer needed parts to become men for their "identity reassignment" then BOTH will be allowed to protest if their freakin' "pronouns" aren't properly respected.

I believe that he eventually worked in mechanical engineering for the Rock Island Railroad and Catepillar, Inc. Also I wanted to note here the passing of Paul Prutzman (aka SGT Braver) in March of 2015. After the USMC, he worked for many years in the Aerospace industry and he also did occasional local theatre acting. Thank you both for your honorable service.

What about Jack Webb? A long time ago on wiki I read where Jack Webb is a Marine, but they don't say anything about that now. He had to have been in the Corps to play such an outstanding role. That is how boot camp was when I was in there with a few differences because I was a Hollywood Marine from MCRD San Diego. For my fellow Marines, I have a cousin buried at Fort Logan National Cemetery. His name was Cpl Richard Losey I think his middle name was David. He was sometimes a point man in Korea carrying a B.A.R. He froze his legs at the Chosin Reservoir. I love the sound of a B.A.R. In the TV Show Combat I recorded Kerby firing his B.A.R. and I made it a ring tone but with all the shootings I decided not to use it anymore. So in the movie Enter the Dragon where Hawn says "Bolo" and Bolo says 'AH' I have the Bolo and AH both as a ringtone. Also my cousin Richard was also in WWII. If you like the Military, I'm reading an outstanding book by General Omar Nelson Bradley. The title is "A Soldiers Story." When I finish reading it I will read the book, Beetle - The Life of General Walter Beetle Smith. I have the movie 'To Hell and Back' on VHS. At the beginning General Smith gives an honorable discourse on Major Audie Leon Murphy. We need to put the values of the WWII Military back into our lifestyle and every political party on this coming ballot. I was using A.I. a few days ago. And I asked it who was the most decorated person in the military and it wrote me back, United States Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant John Basilone. I knew who he was because they taught us about him in Boot Camp and he's in the guidebook. I mean I'm a Marine but I was raised on Audie Murphy since I was a teenager watching the late shows in the summer and eating bologna sandwiches. So I asked that A.I. program again "What about Audie Murphy?" And it wrote back something to the affect, "Yes Audie Murphy is the most decorated person in the history of the USA. I wish my dad was still alive. From 1946-48 he was in Military Government in Japan in the Army. Then in the reserves for 9 years in Intelligence. I learned in this book that there are four designations for intelligence G-1, G-2, G-3 and G-4. He was discharged what would be an E-7 Sgt. He had three BALD brothers. They were all at the Battle of the Bulge all earned a Bronze Star and one was later the SgtMajor of Campo George West here in Golden, Colorado. I have all kinds of family on both my mom's side and my dad's side that were in the Military. I know I have family that was in the Revolutionary War and also a relative that signed either the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence. I think his name was Elray or Elron or sometime thing like that. I have a great, great uncle that fought on both the North and the South in the Civil War and he was in Andersonville. That is a story in itself because he was a French Canadian and not even an American.

This movie came out not long after the Ribbon Creek incident at Parris Island in which six Marine six recruits drowned. The fall out from that incident was the first time the general public questioned why Marine training is the way it is. During the trial that followed, famed Marine Lieutenant General Lewis Burwell "Chesty" Puller testified for the defense. Behind closed doors, Gen. Puller had a few hard words for Staff Sergeant Matthew McKeon, the Drill Instructor at the center of the trail. However, when on the stand and under oath, he gave a full on defense of Marine Corps training and why its challenging to the degree it is, saying that while the incident in Ribbon Creek was "a deplorable accident", it did not warrant a court-martial. He went on to say that discipline is vital to a military, quoting Napoleon when he said that "An army becomes a mob with out it."

I was a WAVE in 1972, and the training was nothing in comparison to the combat training the women endure today. I was 5'3" and weighted 102 lbs., so it would have been impossible for me to lift/carried a 6 ft., 160lb man. Sorry, I KNOW such opinions are unwelcomed today, but that is my experience.

When I was in boot camp, I wasn't allowed to refer to myself as I. I had to say "The Private" Like this: The Private requests permission to speak to the Drill Instructor Sir. You never said "you" either. A Ewe is a female sheep. Everybody that wore glasses was four eyes. However the high shooter in our platoon wore glasses. He was the second high shooter in the series and I was the third. When I went in, there were 3 of us from Colorado. The first time we ran together as a Platoon it was on the 1/2 mile track at MCRD San Diego. The drill instructor told us "We will run 2 miles. When you feel pain in your side suck in more air don't quit." We started with 84 and at the end of the run there were only ten of us that finished. Two of us were from Colorado. When it was over the Drill Instructor said looked back there. All those people that didn't finish are non-hackers. You are the hackers. This was in 1973 May. The term hackers had nothing to do with a computer. When some of us run hard we hack up spit and spit it out. That run was the hardest thing I ever did in my whole life. I went in the Marines when I was 17. Up to then the most I ever ran was 1 mile in gym class in Jr. High. However when I was in Jr. High I had a Denver Post paper route that I did with a pedal bike. My District Adviser told me it was one of the hardest routes because of the hills. The medical doctors agree that if you can run a mile under 7 minutes then you are an athlete. But if you are thinking about going into the USMC you don't need to be an athlete, the Corps will make you into one. I'm 68 and for me there has been no better high than running hard and fast in a Platoon of Marines.

a run I remember well was at Airborne School in April 1984. We ran everywhere, and we did platoon runs. If you dropped out more than once you were immediately kicked out. I was in the front rank and the Black Hats started running and running and running. I don't remember how far we ran but it was a good distance. The pace did not slow down. The lead instructor (Black Hat) picked up the pace. And we ran farther then he really picked up the pace. I was in good shape and I was a fairly good runner so I didn't have a hard time keeping up. Then he picked up the pace again. It was starting to get tough now. I was at the front so I couldn't see how many dropped out. Then he picked up the pace again. Now we were really running fast. He was running us at a much faster pace and farther than we normally ran. I was having trouble keeping up but I was determined not to fall behind. It was getting hard to breathe and I was still up front. We ran even farther and I was getting worried I wasn't going to make it. He wanted to see what we were made of and most of us passed. Then he slowed us down and let the stragglers catch up. The formation was strung out and a few dropped out of the run.

In the 1980’s and 1990’s, the food pyramid recommended grains more than anything else and small amounts of proteins and cheese. I knew of an Airman one time outside of boot camp that had to march in formation with others that were overweight to breakfast and lunch every day. Breakfast was 2 boiled eggs, two strips of bacon, and a small box of Special K served with skim milk. Lunch was a salad and soup. He lost over 20 pounds within the month.

They jumped on him verbally and we all got the lecture -- do not have your mothers needng to call the U.S.M.C. to get in touch with you because of some family disagreement. I made sure to have a $100.00 a month Alottment sent to my Mom until I got my Honorable Discharge so she would not call on me.

@@marcusjustice6165 So sorry for the death of your Mom. My folks are gone too, and I supported them ($$) and two nephews. (Their Mom died at a young age of breast cancer.) You were raised right. I guess we both were, come to think of it. I hope you will write down more of your experiences. Too many of "the guys" think that their experiences have little meaning, but I find them very enjoyable, and I really think many other people do as well. Besides, I have learned so much from all the different experiences. Blessings to you and your family.

They would, depending on if they needed you or not. Right now, they do need recruits across the board. So, they will take you into basic and try to get the weight off. I have seen some active-duty female personnel, and I couldn't believe how overweight they were. And I am referring to officers. I didn't know they made uniforms that big!

I recommend Capt. Eliot Ackerman's account of the Battle of Fallujah. He explains in plain terms that we won the war on terrorism but failed at nation building in Afghanistan. Having said all that we had the Taliban subdued until Biden made a deal with someone, probably China to pull out in the most ridiculous, catastrophic fashion. He left billions in gear, got a lot of our troops killed and abandoned our friends who helped us while we were there.
