Default just graduated from USMC recruit training

saw some nice f-bodies there. I'm going to MCT next month how is that? I am a PFC I was promoted in recruit training so that was sweet. My MOS is 0231, anyone have any pointers for me or any help would be greatly appreciated

Congrats Devil.

Be sure to follow proper uniform regulations, especially in the airport. I've snatched Marines up before for looking like ***, or for wearing WHITE SKIVVIE SHIRTS!!!

You represent the Marine Corps now, so act accordingly. Unless, you want some random NCO to square you away in front of the public eye. We will gladly make those ends meet if so.

Its decently cold here in the Jacksonville area when the sun isn't up, so heads up. MCT is pretty much a cake walk, just take care of yourself and you'll be fine.

Hit that right on the head, I would add..
3) Act like a grown *** man while not at work so everyone can be treated like adults again

Just don't think the fleet is anything like Boot/MCT/MOS School.

The fleet is pretty chill compared to the other stuff you do.

Granted I'm a nasty lazy reservist. So I wouldn't know,lol But I've been around,so I know the ropes somewhat. I still shave daily and get a haircut weekly. I guess you can say I'm a Motard
