We didn’t get our eagle globe and anchor until graduation day


Same in 06.

I think it changed a few years after. When I was a recruiter later on they did it this way. SD does it on the reaper after the climb.

Congrats to OP and his Marine! SF!

I wonder if he cried when his DI handed it to him. A lot of them do

I come from a family of Marines who served in Vietnam. My dad wanted to join, but my grandma wouldn’t let him. Who knows, maybe if he did I would’ve followed in his foot steps.

Congrats and Semper Fidelis!

I checked into Cherry Point after A school with one of mine. He was the a corporal waiting to get discharged. Apparently he threw a mattress off the top of a stairwell and it landed on a recruit and broke his back.
