As one who matriculated through Parris Island during the "I never promised you a rose garden" days I was glad to see the poster shot included. Boot Camp had - and still has in many ways - a profound impact on me. A woman I was dating some years back asked my father to name something I'd done to make him proud; he immediately responded "Made it through Marine Coprs Boot Camp" Semper Fi, Senior Drill Instructor Staff Sergeant Allen!
I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.
You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
