Glad to hear your doing good and you are very welcome! FMTB is a great school and you will never forget the experience. I just wrapped up my 2nd cycle through the east school due to breaking my foot! It sucked but I made it through at my old age so you should be fine! Good luck in your new career and study for those advancement exams. Find a motivated 3rd class and let them mentor you. Finally don’t let shit birds and dirt bags influence your view on the Navy and the Hospital Corps. If you need anything just ask!
HM2, just wanted to say thank you! idk if you remember but I asked you how to go FMF back when i was in DEP, my account was jayboogy. Im in nursing now at corps school and gonna choose my orders when i get back from exodus, im just about top of my class in GPA so im pretty sure im gonna get my goal of fmtb west. just remembered because i saw the old post when i was looking up corpsman ha, once again thanks! - SA Hennessy
Might be deploying in the near future…..hate to say I’m looking forward to it. A break from “all of this” will be worth it. Glad to finally be going with a group of people who understand me; the Marines!
Convincing annoying people they have a lisp is my new favorite thing to do. Yes, it’s a bit dickish but so is wasting minutes of my life I will never get back. Just like the time spent reading this. Enjoy!
What being an “American” has become. Why do people look at me as different just because I want 200 acres in the middle of Texas so I can be away from everyone?
Nothing like coming into the barracks and finding two guys spooning in your rack. God I love open squad bays!
