Sticky FAQ huh?
Well I know what number one has got to be.

1.) When joining the Marines don't be alarmed when you actually have to do Marine press-ups.

Marine Press-ups
The body position is to be forward over the shoulders, making sure the hands are placed shoulder width apart. Bend the elbows to an angle of 90 degrees, keeping the body straight and the head looking forward. Then extend the arms back to the support position. Repeat the exercise. This exercise strengthens the muscles of the chest, arms and shoulders.

A stupid terrorist
stuck in a rut, unsure about the future, unsure about the military lifestyle, for a while anyway

Recruit: My mum burnt her bra in college.

Recruiter: sorry son, im afrid we cant let you in.
