haha if you have a facebook just like "just the tip of the spear", pretty funny stuff on there. And yes! In a way I got lucky getting put here in good ole San Matty. 1SGT's sucks haha! We can even run up it anymore, its too "dangerous", so we have to have a Doc with us and COC approval, its really f-ing stupid.

Go there everytime when I miss the morning chow hall hours haha. I just get the Egg and Bacon or Chorizo.

No S*** haha, who were your DI's?? And Congratulations! ITB will be fun =) Welcome to the 03 life.

 

JTTOTS is awesome. Most Marines should look it up. The only ones that usually get pissed are the Walking Mattresses and boots.

Which brings up a question... wtf do those boots carry in their packs EVERYWHERE!?!?! Packs were not that popular when I was in; but damn they are everywhere now.

 

haha no clue........

 

SDI GYSGT Barton
DI SGT Asencio
DI SGT Luminaire
DI SSGT Lewis
DI SSGT Martinez

Haha thanks, I'm both nervous and excited to get the beginning of my career started

 

ITB...

 

Uh oh, that doesn't sound good haha

 

Ah none of mine. I was Echo in boot.

 

Dude, you're missing out! Screw Horno, SOI chow hall is where it's at! Not the ITB/MCT line but if you go in the side near the parade deck(Left entrance as you're walking down the parade deck), they make some mean breakfast burritos! You can even get them in a bowl if you'd like. Not sure if they still have it but definitely check it out. Lunch time they have/had that SubMarine lunch, which is better than any chow hall on base. Ask MrGrimm, he'll tell ya!

Oh shit dude, welcome back! How was bootcamp? Had fun I hope? How many people in your platoon did you see cry?

 

haha I'm in Mateo, but i've heard that chow hall is tasty haha.

I still gotta try the drive thru chow hall over in Mainside haha.

 

I leave in May for Camp Lejeune but I will make sure he gets hooked up...I already know what company he will be picking up with.

 

They have a drive thru chow hall!?!?!

 

That's what I hear, pretty ridiculous haha.

 

Checking into Camp Pendleton CA air station for 6114 MOS school this week. Just graduated MCT Tuesday. I thought I was going to Pensacola but guess not haha. I'm in area 22 and don't get to have my truck. I feel so stranded! I've seen lots of tacoma's around tho! Hoping I like school here!

 

A drive through!?!? What!?! Hahah if you get a chance, try the 22 Area chow hall. Pretty decent. Far drive just for chow though.

Nice! How was MCT? You can always call the van to transport you to Oceanside and get a room at Motel6 for the weekend And get harassed by people trying to sale you cars near the theater. Or go north to San Clemente to avoid all that.

 

Future 1371.. i leave in july. brother is in supply and the other was in 3rd LAR. dad was a radio operator for an artillery unit. poppy was.. idr his MOS but he served before vietnam. great uncle was recon during nam, crazy shit. can't wait, yut yuut!

 

Honestly I hated MCT. It sucked for me. I learned a lot though I guess. I'm only gonna be here for about 3 months I think. Just got to get use to the swing things!

 

True story about O slime haha.

San Clemente is where it's at. Don't tell all your friends that though

 

The only thing to watch out for in San Clemente is the drunk Infantry guys. We.. I mean - They tend to make fun of boots that do stupid stuff. At least it was like that when I was in.

(Are they called boots anymore? Or are they Junior Junior Marines now?)
