“I didn't have toys and bikes; I'd go out and pick up rocks. I was into science and nature. It was my first love. I was going to be a vet and a marine biologist. I went to university and studied biology for two weeks and I just thought: "I've been conned!"” FirstsTwoWeekRocksPicksUniversityBiologyToysFirst LoveBikeMarineTwo WeeksBiologistVetsMarine Biologist Author:Ricky Gervais
“I came to my first Colts training camp in July of 1950, and it was murder, absolute murder. We had a coach named Clem Crow who must have been nuts. You got to remember that I'd been a Marine, had gone through basic training and spent 26 months in the Pacific during WWII, but the Marine drill instructors had nothing on Clem.” FirstsHas BeensRememberGoneMonthsTrainingMurderAbsolutesCoachesCampsNutsMarineJulyWwiiCrowPacificDrillsInstructorsTraining CampColtsBasic Training Author:Art Donovan
“When you’re working with Army and Marine Corps units, you immediately notice a difference. The Army is pretty tough, but their performance can depend on the individual unit. Some are excellent, filled with hoorah and first-class warriors. A few are absolutely horrible; most are somewhere in between. In my experience, Marines are gung ho no matter what. They will all fight to the death. Every one of them just wants to get out there and kill. They are bad-ass, hard-charging mothers.” WantFirstsMatterHardMotherFightingIndividualDifferencesClassDependsToughPerformancesArmyNo Matter WhatFilledHorribleAssWarriorExcellentUnitsBad AssMarineMarine CorpsFirst ClassCharging Author:Chris Kyle
