Well, he started with the hardest service and ended up with the easiest. Sometimes it takes a Marine a little longer to catch on.

My son spent 4 years in the Army and then joined the Navy for 6 years. He said he was going to join the Marines next but reupped in the Navy. I guess being with the Seabees(ms?) was the best of both, huh?:')

I had a history teacher who served in the Marines during Korea, finished up his tour of duty and then enlisted in the Army on Vietnam. Finished that up and decided the Air Force might be kind of cool, and served in the Air National Guard for a few years.

Then he went from a private school to a public school. I think he's seen all kinds of war... ;)

Isn't U.S.M.C. considered an obscene tattoo in the other branches of the service, and thus disqualifying?

That's pretty cool! I wonder how many people have ever served in every branch? Maybe someone has served in all of those and the Coast Guard too???

Nah that's what you get at Denny's. Now let's see he still has the Coast Guard and the Merchant Marines to do.

I trained a Marine that was in all 4 branches. He was so sorry that he picked the Marine Corps last because they sent him to boot camp and removed all rank. The other branches did'nt. I spent time in the USMC and the Army but I dont tell many I was in the Army.

I was in the Seabees, served with a guy who had been Army, 101st in Vietnam. He sure got some looks with jump wings, 4 rows of ribbons topped by a Bronze Star, E-3 stripes and 2 good conduct stripes on his crackerjacks.
