ACK!!
My half-brother (so I have been told by my sister) joined the Marines today.
The funny part.. he was apparently considering Navy, but decided he didn't like the uniforms.

... Umm... yeah... 'Cause the look of the uniform is what matters...
Best of wishes to him, esp. if the DIs find out he was considering the Navy. :)

Most of the uniforms look better than crackerjacks and dixiecups...

Well, if you consider that you're gonna have to wear the uniform every day for at least two years...

Hey, if he wants to look like a real man instead of one of the Village People, more power to him...

Okay, coming from a "born in the Army" to "married to Navy"...he should have gone Air Force if the uni's were the selling point...
I'm hoping there was more to it than that. Besides, I'd rather have sea than sand any day of the week..Prayers to him.

Yeah..
apparently Marines also had the 'right' field that he wanted to get into. Sorry, I don't recall WHAT the field was, but there ya go..
Oh, and something about cross-training him in that are as well.. so no, not 'just' for/about the uniform. ;D
