did you like the marines?

Oh, Hell. I always thought is was Simplerfy

i exaggerated a little to get out but i tried to get out on a hardship but either your mother or your father or sister, brother, etc. has to be on their deathbed before they let you out on that. i was very depressed though. i will not lie about that. my family has a history with that. i am taking medication for it now though. they don't have a discharge where you just tell them i quit so you have to get their attention and then i told them i know the marines and i would benefit from me getting out. kind of a i'm in the middle of something i don't wish to continue.

Re: did you like the marines?
i don't believe i fooled them. they definately had an idea what i was doing but i still had a problem though. i exaggerated but i'm not looking for sympathy though. just wanted to see how other people felt about it. i served 2 years and i served well. being a female marine is not easy by any means and do salute the ones who are still fighting.

The Marines (and for that matter other branches of the armed forces) are not for everyone. Some people thrive on it, some people do well in it, some people do o-k and get by and others have a very difficult time with it. The one thing I wish was that the recruiters are a bit more honest and up front with it so that people who it is so hard on do not enlist.

i agree with that statement. i wasn't going to join in the first place, but the thing that made me was that my recruiter told me i would be charged if i didn't go to meps to swear in because they had already spent 3000 dollars on me to go to get all my physicals and **** done. recruiters are very tricky. they will stretch the truth as far as possible to get someone to join any service.
