re: Question for OT Marines

My cousin had a dude in his boot camp that was a late in life oops baby. His father and two older brothers that were 15 years older or so served and thought that the Marines had gone soft.

The brothers and father would write notes on the outside of the envelope like “ Don’t worry my DI was a dickhead too” and “ Good to hear you are having such an easy time”.

DIs of course knew what was up but they would punish the poor bastard during mail call.
