When I graduated from college, I decided to serve too. I was first recruited for the Marine Corps in the fall of 1975, right when Hillary Clinton claims to have wanted to join the Marines. I began Officer Candidate School with Company C in Quantico, Virginia the next year. It was the first female class required to do everything that men did, which led to being featured on the cover of Life Magazine. Although a medical issue kept me from completing my training and becoming a Marine officer, my experience doesnât jibe with the yarn which Hillary Clinton has been selling for years on the campaign trail and is now the subject of renewed scrutiny.

Nobody asks Hillary about this, which is so obviously a lie.
If there’s one thing I cannot stand, it’s the “I almost joined, but ________________.” excuse. So what, you deserve an Almost Hero award?
LOL! EVERYBODY gets a trophy. My dad swore me in in 1967 since he was an O-6 and had the authority to do it. Kinda cool to salute your dad. Hell, I already said yes sir and no sir. A lot less no sirs.
Bill and Hillary were part of the anti-war movement and if she went to the Marine recruiting office at all, it was to cause trouble.
Her Thighness would never meet standard.
HILLARY: "Can I get a second opinion?"
RECRUITER: "Yeah, your ugly too."
Yeppers.
In my eyes, it comes pretty damn close to Stolen Valor.
She just says s*** that pops into her head. With the years of alcohol abuse and age, it's getting more bizarre. Next thing you know she'll be accusing the Secret Service of stealing her World's Fair Spoon she uses to stir her drinks.
Hillary lies when she opens her mouth. Everyone knows it. Half of Americans will still vote for her. Why debunk her every utterance?
Got coke?
Let’s see Hillary duck this one...no pun intended....yeh, right...
>>If thereâs one thing I cannot stand, itâs the âI almost joined, but ________________.â excuse. So what, you deserve an Almost Hero award?
I agree. It is their way of saying, “I could have done what you did, but I didn’t.”
>>She just says s*** that pops into her head. With the years of alcohol abuse and age, it’s getting more bizarre. Next thing you know she’ll be accusing the Secret Service of stealing her World’s Fair Spoon she uses to stir her drinks.
Just wait until she’s president and the White House strawberries go missing.
My God, no daiquiris? Heads will roll!
(Yes, I get the movie reference, but with The Mad Queen, missing strawberries is a more heinous crime.)
The fact that Hillary had a law degree proves that the Marines did not turn her away. No way would they have done that.
OMG! Can you even fathom her in the JAG office?
lol. No! Not at all. I can’t fathom her in the White House as most important powerful person of the World. Lord I hope that doesn’t happen too.
When most woman are preparing their wedding which was October 1975, Hillary was talking to Marines wanting to join? Doesn’t small the BS test at all. I don’t know of a single woman who a year out isn’t up to their nose in wedding stuff. Was it before or after the cake tasting that she ran to the recruiter office?
