What kind of people join the Marines?

Ok, perhaps an odd question, but I was curious about the general personalities of the guys who join up... For some reason I had the idea that recruits would probably be nice, decent 'normal' guys, but then I was thinking, what if most of them are typical loudmouth knobs who think they're hard? You k...

Thanks for taking the time to write that Statistic, and the other guys. I'm definitely going to keep at it and try my best to succeed. Spent £120 on gym stuff a few weeks ago, so spending my hard-earned cash is a bit of an incentive too.. :) I'll try and vary my routine from now on. I've been writin...

Can an average bloke turn into a potential marine?

Been doing a LOT of thinking recently about getting fit and joining the forces... Originally I wanted to join the Navy and decided I need to get much, much fitter and stronger. I'm still relatively unfit, but I can feel a massive difference since I started trying. I went for a run this morning and i...

Interesting medical question...

I was wondering if any of you chaps have ever seen anyone in the marines/army with a concave chest. The reason I ask is that I have one - it's not that extreme but obviously very noticeable - but I don't know if it would prevent me from joining any of the forces. (I won't be joining any for quite a ...

Bit of a contradiction isn't it? :-? how can you not be ready, yet be handing in your application in soon?

question about running...

Right need a bit of advice (please).. At the moment I'm not totally unfit, but nowhere near good enough for any of the forces. The main problem is my running - I recently went for a run (first time in absolutely ages) and I was totally knackered after 0.5 miles (and it took nearly 4 minutes)! My leg...
