Leaving for Basic Training, Any Advice?
I'm leaving in like 2 weeks, anyone have any advice or questions? I wish I could just go tomorrow, the anticipation is killing me.

1 ответDon't let the Drill Sergeants intimidate you. I think that's one of the most important things to remember.

Tell your recruiter you quit, join the marines, profit from killing rag heads, join pmc after your career is done.

I'm assuming you're joining army, I'm going to tell you about their drill instructors. Drill instructors in the army aren't as insane as you think, you have room for error in what you say and do, but still try not to get them too mad. Make sir you don't call them "sirs," because they're not, they're enlisted. However if you're joining the Marines you can't get them a little mad, can't make the wrong move (if you slap a fly while being inspected the make you find it and hold it out for like 20 minutes), don't say the wrong thing in front of them, definitely [b]DO NOT[/b] call them sir, let then call you any nickname they want, and most definitely do not call them a drill sergeant. They are not drill sergeants, they are drill instructors, and Marines hate being called or associated with things they're not.

2 отв.[quote]3,300 is a lot[/quote] Considering you're always on call and always ready to do shit, if you're doing 12 hour days you're working 9.8 dollars per day, 16 hour days you're making 7.3 dollars per day, and if it's 18 then it's 6.2. Arguing it's economically savvy is untrue in comparison to your time. I wish you luck but you're also signing your life away to an entity that regards you as a number instead of a human being. You're a political tool now and it's sad how they treat our military, good luck.

Изменено (Aaxes): 3/20/2016 3:40:43 PMI had to go thru a form of basic when I was 14 years old. We all stayed in barracks for a week as they treated us no different than they would regular active duty members. Not gonna lie I was rly surprised and kind of scared seeing other kids cry. But something told me to not take it seriously. Idk like animal instinct or something but once I did that , it was a piece of cake.Its all mental just remember that...until you P.T. lol

1 ответIf you get an old fashioned drill sergeant then prepare to hear lots of screaming. If it's a newer generation they act more like counsellors and give you positive criticism and less ass-kicking. Source: My old man, he's active duty and a bit old-fashioned himself. But apparently society is pressuring the military to be 'less mean'

3 отв.What MOS? I was 11B went to Ft. Benning back in 1990. They called it One station unit training. Basic, infantry, then straight to Airborne. Its only hard if you make it hard. They will screw with you but if do what your told and drive on you'll be fine.
