Seriously? Marine basic is the same as Army's, 'cept it's a bit longer cause of the water training. And I hate water personally.

Well, I'm relatively new to everything now too, just a cadet so the only thing I can comment on is the most basic of basic crap. I don't pretend to know anything, but I can just repeat what I hear from other people. Apparently, alot of people's opinions are that they've made basic alot easier to get numbers up.

Out of curiosity, what do y'all military folks think of this? 98% body coverage, 95% flexibility I believe.

From the time I was in in the 70's to when my kid was in in the late 90's, boot camp became a whole lot different. Mush of the stuff had tochange to accomadate ladies and the fact that they are not as physically defined as men are, for the most part

Wrong!!!!!!!
Even during wartime the Marine Corps doesn't have a five star.
The correct answer is, because the Marine Corps is a Department of the Navy and during wartime the Marines take their orders from the Fleet Admiral.

For a Guy that loves his Marine Corps, you don't know too much history about it. You should have leaned that on in Basic, you know, with Chain of Command.

That makes sense. Some have said have they've noticed it in the past few years even more, but, I have nothing to compare it to. My cousin was a Seal and my papaw was all the way back in WW2, idk what Army life was before, and still don't now really. The one thing I have learned is not to talk like you know stuff if your just a basic course cadet.
