    Alright guys, my brother, Gatortaco92, has been in Parris Island, SC 2 weeks, going on his third. He is having some difficulty with the mental part of it. We are kinda hoping everyone here will leave some POSITIVE feedback to get his spirits back up. WE WANT HIM TO BE A MARINE!!!! He has done nothing but dream about going there since he signed up and went to MEPS. So, with that being said, bring on the support and lets help him through it!!! :yay::taco:

    that's the thing. Marines don't fail out. Their Graduation gets pushed back a week if they fail at one task.

    If you're an 03xx boot camp will be the easiest thing you do. If you any other MOS, hey, it can only get easier from here! It's all in how you look at it.
