Dating a Marines Daughter…
Dating a Marines Daughter…
Rule One: If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.
Rule Two: You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.

Don’t forget the paperwork
When I enlisted in the Corps, my mother told me not to trust everything the recruiters told me, keep a copy of EVERYTHING that I came in contact with. Not to slam recruiters, but it's still a wise choice. I kept everything from the recruiter including my "honorary" PFC stripe for doing a few months recruiting duty prior to boot and my "guaranteed" contract to go to electronics school at 29 Palms.

Enlisted Marine Returns as Officer
MARINE CORPS AIR STATION CHERRY POINT, N.C., Feb. 4, 2011 – Marine Corps Capt. Joshua H. Weiland grew up in a typical American family in Park Falls, Wis. Not much more than a couple of intersections in the middle of a national forest, the town gave Weiland an environment that fit his personality.
