i was medically DQ’d from the Marines for minor cerebral palsy. i seriously don’t know what the fuck to do with my life now. all i have trained and studied for is the military. no exaggeration, for the past 8 years (i am turning 19 on the 28th). i get so upset with the circle of thoughts in my head. everyone that knows me thinks i just p*ssied out and withdrew from enlisting. half of my graduating class from high school (2009) has enlisted in the Marines. now everyone thinks i am always going to be a balless civilian. i am ashamed to be stuck as a civilian, and have no military background. it makes me overwhelmingly enraged to think about the fact that i am going to go through my entire life without any military background, while half my class is going to be retired Marines with tons of stories to tell, and be respected by every beautiful girl and guy. you may think of me as just a stupid teenager, but you honestly could not understand how much i wanted this unless you could literally be inside my thoughts. i don’t know what to do. my grand kids. they’re going to be like "Daddy, was grandpa ever in the military?" and then he will say no, and my grand kids will just think of me as a weak and soft old man. i have ALWAYS wanted to have a USMC funeral when i die. now i cant. i cant because of this fucking cerebral palsy. there really is no point to my life now. all i am capable of doing is grunt infantry dirty work with a rifle and hand grenades. those are the only talents i have. combat talents. defensive and offensive thinking and maneuvering, weapon techniques, marksmanship, hand to hand combat, exercise and endurance, teamwork, no man left behind thought process, that is all i have. outside of combat i have shit for brains in the civilian world. i bet anybody anything that i cant get into any college when they look at me and see how much i am unmotivated to sit in a god damn class room. my place is out in the field. and to top that off, there is no job for me that pays well that doesn’t require college. **** being a police officer. i dont want to be a cop. cops are so looked down on by everyone it is disgusting. don’t get me wrong i would do college in a heartbeat. but i don’t know what the hell to major in. all i like is combat. i don’t know what my question is. i just have no one to vent to.
i can never claim the title Marine and wear the uniforms with pride. i cant get the brand and dog on my arm.
exactally what i expected from you ass hole veterans (darsh, scout). to bad you didnt get your heads blown off.
i would love to slit your throats. thank God we all are behind a computer.
*you should thank God we are all behind a computer

Did you know President Eisenhower sent the first troops into Vietnam?

Roosevelt didn’t have any and when France fell and England came under siege in 1940, he began to send Great Britain all possible aid short of actual military involvement.

When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, Roosevelt directed organization of the Nation’s manpower and resources for global war.

Clinton didn’t have a military background. He successfully dispatched peace keeping forces to war-torn Bosnia and bombed Iraq when Saddam Hussein stopped United Nations inspections for evidence of nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons.

it looked like the pics you see of the men and women patrolling the streets of iraq, on the big tank-type vehicles (but the kind w/ actual wheels, not those weird chain thingies) where they’re standing on top with their m-16′s or whatever big guns out and ready, just in case, only it was on a california freeway! we’re far from any base that i know of, they were headed north, and san diego is south of me. 29 palms and all that, im not sure what direction that is from me, but its a good 1.5 hrs away. so what im basically wondering is, i’ve seen military vehicles before, but never w/ the boys on top with their giant guns out in their hands! does anyone know what this was? i assume the guns werent loaded and it was some kind of training activity, but i grew up in a HEAVILY military populated area and have never seen this before, especially not on the freeway and not w/ the guns out!
lol i was NOT being paranoid, i could plainly see them, and im very used to seeing military vehicles on the road. like i said, i grew up in norfolk, va, look it up, world’s largest naval base, but anyway, i’ve seen a million convoys and military vehicles by themselves, and w/ the boys standing on top, but never holding guns. they weren’t small guns, they were BIG, so i didn’t imagine them. and im not being paranoid b/c i didn’t find this sight worrisome in the least, i just am curious to know if anyone w/ any military background whatsoever knows why they would have been there like that. like i said, i assume it was training, but what a long way from base they were!
it wasn’t a tank w/ a mounted gun, they were guns the boys were holding. and i highly doubt it was a movie shoot, although a good theory, because we were in rush hour on friday afternoon in heavy traffic on the 15 freeway. about 2 hours north of camp pendleton.
