Just going by personal experience every single Marine I know first off let's you know very quickly they are a jarhead. Secondly each and everyone of them are friggin nuts.
One of my college professors is a retired Marine. Nice guy smart funny but that joker has to be one of the nuttiest SOBs I've run across.
I do wonder one thing though since Marines are so widely regarded as being such hardass and efficient troopers...why the hell doesn't the Army adopt their training policies? It would stand to reason in my opinion that if the smaller and less well equiped Marine corp was that tough that it would be smart to have the more numerous Army to be up to the Marine standard. Not that the Army sucks or anything but that level of effectiveness in combination with some of the baddest fighting machines on the planet CAN'T be a bad thing.
