So I was talking to a friend and he was talking about joining the marines.
Join To Promote The WAR? WHY?
At first I thought about it and I was like what for war to help them promote it? Bush and his boys just use up all the money to buy steak dinners. Why should I help their cause by joining?
We’ll I had to think about it for a while but at the end I decided it would be a good idea just for the experience.
Reasons Why I Would Join
I think their are many great reasons to become a U.S. Marine. Mainly for the experience of being in the marines and the extensive bootcamp you go through for 3 months (12 weeks).
I believe, the bootcamp will strength you and teach you discipline, teamwork and how to be a leader. Just the experience alone in doing it is worth it. It’s not that long of your life and you have another great story to talk about.
I plan on experiencing college life we’ll before I go to the marines is because I can go in as an officer rather than starting from the bottom and going up.
This means I won’t go to the marines for a long while. I still need to get credits to transfer then get my BA or BS degree then go into the marines.
Benefits Of Joining Marines
Check out MarineOfficer.com to find out more about how to become an officer in the marines. Benefits for Marines here to see a list of the benefits you receive being a marine officer.
I’m guessing this page here Marine Officer Leadership Positions they have many different leadership positions that you can apply too.
Taking a look at the Marine Corps Career checkout the link. It’s up to 21 years you can be a Colonel. That’s a lot of years if you do choose to go this route.
So Am I Joining The Marines?
I’d like to try it out, but we’ll see plans my change in the future. I still need to transfer from my community college and get a B.A or B.S. Degree so it will be a while till this happens.
