SOooo simple to say Marine OR ex-marine that I just say those. COme on RV !!! Kitty, There is a history behind the term Jarhead and Leatherneck, that Marines are called. A Marine doesn't take offense to another Marine calling them that. Thanks for re-wording that... I live such a sheltered life I had no clue what Jarhead was. SOooo simple to say Marine OR ex-marine that I just say those. COme on RV !!! OH and there is NO SUCH THING as an Ex-Marine. Only Former Marines, Once a Marine always a Marine.

Banjolatusak Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 If you were a Pup, you must of been in a Marine family. Welcome Naw...My Mom was selling insurance to L.A. County probation officers. Some how the conversation turn to my Mom wanting to take a vacation but was afraid to leave her two teenaged boys alone for two weeks. One of the officers told her of a program to divert male youths from crime. It was run by the Marines down on Camp P. Ten days of drills, formation runs, PT, forced marching and otherthings. I loved it! Got me in shape for football hellweek. I kicked ass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
