Yes sir! Ah, well i am a 17 year old student from Chesapeake Virginia who leaves for Parris Island on May 31st. Afterwards I will be at the Virginia Military Institute for 4 years. I can't wait to get in the Corps and serve my country. Other then my prospective future, i'm a big fan of computer games, military history, science fiction, and probably a whole host of things i have forgotten at the moment.
Ok, Q & A time i guess...
I think my reply to this posting went into the black hole of cyberspace to disappear forever, so here we go again.
Parris Island? How long will you be there and what's the purpose? Are you taking boot camp for the summer to condition yourself for VMI and a commission somewhere down the road? I'm impressed! Keep us posted.
I'll be there for 11 weeks of Marine Corps Basic Training. And yes sir, after I graduate from VMI i'll take a commission as a 2nd Lieutinent. Ah, the fun things i have planned...
