19 going on 20.

Been training on and off for about 5 1/2 years now. Not planning on having a c@#t about September 2005 when I will have finished uni (yes I do mean PRMC not POC).

Good luck to everyone.

23

I originally applied last year but withdrew my application due to a job change, and concern about my eyesight…

I have since realised how badly I want to join the marines, and I have started training again.

your 14??? i know its kind of off topic but if you're younger make sure you dont over-work yourself as you are growing, you could do real damage to your body.
