Learn to shoot right if you can, the worst is when one hangs up in your kevlar strap, instant scar.



The new uniforms have a fancy collar to shield your neck when you are wearing your armor.... it is also a perfect place for hot brass to collect.

I have a couple of scars but never went to see a Corps Men about it. Must be an Army thing. ;) ;) :cheerleader2: :cheerleader2: :cheerleader2: :goofydance: :hmm:

I used to love weapons qualification, since Medics get pistols we would qualify with the officers. Always fun to watch. :D

We had one Major who was very good, but he didn't learn that from the Army.

As far as the shooting. Primary Marksmen Instructors (PMI) deal with teaching all people from all walks of life to learn to shoot. And they have to "unteach" people bad habits. Just pay attention and dont worry about it they know how and what to do. As long as you listen and do what they say you will do just fine.

I dont know anything about you but I would focus on running, push up's, and sit ups. You do a lot more of those than you do shooting. And remember no matter what you do it will be wrong and you will have to do it again. It is more mental than physical. and dont laugh at DI's. They dont like that.




haha yeah i would never laugh at a DI, i value my life :D and i try to run every day and workout. as of right now i can get a 280 on the PFT i just gotta get my run time down a couple more minutes

You will probably graduate a 300 if you do a 280 now. Learn the basic history of the Corp's, General Orders, rank for USMC as well as Navy, and just blend in. I thought DI's were pretty funny, but only laughed once. What MOS are you looking at?

To not drink more booze than I can handle on an empty stomach.................... :P
