Good luck Lazy, make America proud with your service. Going Marine is ehh...but I do wish you the best in your tenure with our proud armed forces. Maybe after your stint with the pretty boys who ride on boats but cannot drive them, you can join a real service branch  (Even after almost a decade out of Uniform, I am still a Army SSG at heart) |

Is not so bad. I went to Army basic (Leonard Wood, MO), so I don't know how crayons taste but I imagine is pretty similar otherwise.
So long as you embrace the suck, it's quite fun. You get to laugh at all the drama from babies and profile rangers who actually think it's hard (it isn't, unless you're super out of shape going in). So long as you aren't too retarded and thus can follow basic instructions it's straightforward.
Reception BN was the worst part. A full week of hurry up and wait bullshit paperwork and shots you probably already got at MEPS before you get to all the hooah shit.
Good luck and I hear the red crayolas are best. Don't draw dicks in the latrine unless you wanna get the whole company dropped.

and don't fuck up your drills on the range when you get there, holding your boom stick over your head as your run round the range road shouting whatever inane shit the DS came up with isn't as much fun as the movies make out ..... still basic isn't hard once you get past the sleep deprivation phase just make sure you tell them your going career and want a trade from the start, you don't even have to stop getting paid while your getting that college degree  |

As before, you'll do well. There's no big secret to boot camp other than just one day at a time, meal to meal. I'd suggest taking some time during senior DI square away time to get your shit in order; study, practice drill, clean your rifle. They notice when you put the time in to better yourself.

When my father was in the National Guard his platoon was given the wrong coordinates for a fire mission during an exercise and they ended up calling down 81mm mortars on what was probably a few million dollars worth of state-of-the-art MILES gear. A very efficient use of tax dollars.
Keep a tally of how much stuff you destroy.
