As a Marine dad I am very happy to offer congratulations a thank you. Before my son went in I went to the recruiter with him because I was sure he was going to be railroaded. The recruiter asked if my wife and I would like to see a videotape of boot camp. I expected a Marine Corps public relations masterpiece to unfold on the television screen. Instead a very graphic representation of what recruits have to endure to earn the title of US Marine was put up and I can’t imagine how a recruiter could think that video was a selling point. And attending the graduation ceremony at MCRD was one of the the most awesome experiences I have ever witnessed.
You have accomplished something that only a small percentage of people even attempt to undertake and you should be proud to call yourself a Marine.
