The Marines offer a great quality of life......for the citizens of this great country

It is different, you will work more, be home less, be abused every day and told that you were a mistake and they are going to call your recruiter and get them fired, but after all that you still would not trade a single day of your enlistment for any other branch. The sense of pride you feel, the bonds you make, the brotherhood is unlike anything I have ever seen in this world and you you wake up everyday with a great feeling of self worth.

Somedays you wake up in the middle of the sand and you say "man, what the hell was I thinking" but then you get a reality check and get back to work realizing you are there because you chose to be there and every guy to your left and right would die for you in a second and will do everything in their power and even lose their lives to get you home to your wife and kids. I also compare it to being out in the rain in a sense as far as deployment...you start getting wet and it is miserable and it sucks and you are wet and cold but once you are soaked you just take it in stride and realize it cant get any worse and you actually start to have alot of fun.


So if any of that sounds appealing then absolutely the Marines are for you..otherwise I think the airforce is looking for a few good airmen
