angeleyes23 asked:


I know that in Marine boot camp, the women train apart from the men and even have all female DIs, but does that change afterwards? The reason I ask is that I’ve always been more comfortable around guys (about 97% of my friends are male).
Just wondering.

cynthisia asked:


My boyfriend and I are going to the Parrise Island Marines boot camp next month, and since I have never been to a military graduation i’m kinda confused on what to wear? Is it formal like a regular school graduation or is it casual wear ? Can anyone help??? I was thinking at first about a white summer dress….. or white capris and a hot pink dressy top? and high heels???

Sam P asked:


I read that you have to be able to do 75 pushups in two minutes to pass PRT in boot camp. Also, 75 situps and 20 pullups. Is this true because I tried it and I can only get 66 in two minutes and I’m in really good shape I’m 14.

penny4ahit asked:


Basically i want to know the steps, what should i be ready for, and how long untill i should expect to deploy after boot camp?.
Im planning on talking to a recruiter about it, but from what ive read, they mainly want you to sign the contract and not fill you in with everything.

che_kyo_booty asked:


I’m guessing that only someone who’s actually been through both US Navy and either the Army or Marine boot camp/basic training/recruit training will be able to give an insightful answer. But I will take any input on how difficult the Navy recruit training actually is. Please no hype, only true stories. Thanks.
