Men. I can not confirm this with any searching/Googling yet but: It seams that the new recruits of Paris Island (Marine boot camp), will be issued a "sress card" to be used when a drill instructor stresses them out enough. All they need to do is pull out the card and wave it in the instructors face and the instructor needs to back off. Also, the thing called the crusible (hell week)is no more. I know this because I just needed to send back a PFC new Marine on Christmass day. We droped him off at Philly air port to finish the second leg of his training in NC. On the trip down to the air port Mat was telling myself and his mother that he was one of the last of the "REAL" Marines. Word spread via grape vine/his pears about the new, as he says "sisified" batch of Marines. He also, contributes this to an orginization called "Marine moms". I may be wrong in the exact name of the group, I was so hot headed about this. But, it's that or something like that. I needed to quite down in my rantings with it being Christmass day and his mother was upset enough- sending off her son for a 5:55PM flight. I went to his graduation at Paris Island and it was moving and impressive. As I choked back tears at the serimony I was thinking that atleast they haven't infiltrated(to the point that it will make them inefective) the Marines. I seem to be wrong.
Don't know what our Country is becoming.
"I'm not gonna use the Starbucks cards 'cuz they refused to send coffee to soldiers.

Besides, I heard they were French-owned. Did you hear that? Pass it on.
No friggin way! Get a grip already.
LOL. Have you ever! I have seen some bad troll posts, but this one takes the cake. Grammar, spelling and idiocy all in one place.
Hey Doc, you might have missed finding those cards unless you were a protologist.

So anyway, one day he went to sleep and when he awoke he was in his bathtub and it was full of ice and he was sore all over. When he got out of the tub he realized that HIS KIDNEYS HAD BEEN STOLEN and he saw a note on his mirror that said, "Call 911!" But he was afraid to use his phone because it was connected to his computer, and there was a virus on his computer that would destroy his hard drive if he opened an e-mail entitled, "Join the crew!"
He knew it wasn't a hoax because he himself was a computer programmer who was working on software to save us from Armageddon when the year 2000 rolls around. And it's a little-known fact that the Y1K problem caused the Dark Ages.
His program will prevent a global disaster in which all the computers get together and distribute the $600 Neiman-Marcus cookie recipe under the leadership of Bill Gates. (It's true, I read it all last week in a mass e-mail from BILL GATES HIMSELF, who was also promising me a free Disney World vacation and $5,000 if I would forward the e-mail to everyone I know.)
The poor man then tried to call 911 from a pay phone to report his missing kidneys, but reaching into the coin-return slot he got jabbed with an HIV-infected needle around which was wrapped a note that said, "Welcome to the world of AIDS."
Luckily he was only a few blocks from the hospital-the one where that little boy who is dying of cancer is, the one whose last wish is for everyone in the world to send him an e-mail and the American Cancer Society has agreed to pay him a nickel for every e-mail he receives.
I sent him two e-mails and one of them was a bunch of x's and o's in the shape of an angel (if you get it and forward it to 20 people you will have good luck but 10 people you will only have OK luck and if you send it to less than 10 people you will have BAD LUCK FOR SEVEN YEARS).
So anyway the poor guy tried to drive himself to the hospital, but on the way he noticed another car driving along without its lights on. To be helpful, he flashed his lights at him and was promptly shot as part of a gang initiation.
"Hey Doc, you might have missed finding those cards unless you were a protologist."
What does a protologist do?

Sure they do. Worth every dime. However, they aren't USMC approved.
LOL That's priceless
Drill Instructor: "Who the F&^% said that!? Who'se the lil co$%sucker down here that just signed his own death warrant?!
My FAVORITE film, bar none.
"The cards were strictly for informational purposes: they informed recruits of available support services. "
Well darn! They seem to have forgotten to issue mine in 1968.
Be very suspicious of any poster who claims to have knowledge of the United States Marine Corps, but doesn't know how to spell the name of that little town in South Carolina where recruits become Marines.
I am as Conservative as they come! Your rite I did not spell check this or dig that deep to verify an urban legend. I have turned to reading this site on and off since the first Gulf war. I am very much a rite conservative in my views and am criticized for it daily. I lash back and try to convert liberals at every opportunity.
I vehemently take offense to the troll and democrat label.
I was sharing information that I came across from what I thought was a darn good source(a new PFC marine).
I support and have the highest regard for our military. I am as patriotic as they come. I am in debt and humbled to all of our brave military personnel. Not only do I support our troops but I support the war. Again, I am a catholic(13 years of Holy Angels/St Anthony's), conservative, rite leaning patriotic, left despising, true American- who can't spell.
PS: I spell checked this
Consider this a baptism by fire.
Nothing is fonier than an intellechjual trying to write lik a hick.
Sounds suspicious... and can't Marines spell better than this?
