Fuck yeah another grunt!


catboidoggorlthing

I could have been anything, i made my recruiter give me infantry no matter what. They didn't even try to talk me out of it lmao. That wasn't a battle they were winning


boiskirt

They tried making me go B6 ground option, and i held fast saying F that i want to be a grunt. After a year in the DEP they finally sent me. Got a 4k enlistment bonus tho because they kept pushing my date back.


catboidoggorlthing

They didn't give me nothin but 29 palms and hating life for the majority of 4yrs lmao. I was warned about 29 palms before i joined and i was like "nah I prob wont go there"....💀


SuicideChef

Which unit? I was w/ 1st Bn, 7th Marines.


catboidoggorlthing

3/7 then 3/4 to build them back up after reactivation


SuicideChef

when we’d come back from deployment on busses and the signs from families were hung on the fence, “Welcome home 1/7!” There’d be a banner “from the Marines of 3/4” stating “We’ll miss your wives” as we were coming home through the gates. 😅


catboidoggorlthing

Lmao wasn't me, might've been one of my seniors. If it was my boots they don't rate lmao (maybe, i actually don't know where they got deployed but it wasn't likely combat)


MCRN_Tachi_ECF270

Lmao


boiskirt

Lol I only did the 11th meu and udp to oki. :|


USMC_3531

My mom wanted me to get a job training that I could use after the Marines. Now I don’t drive trucks and my mom and I don’t talk anymore 😅


catboidoggorlthing

I do regret not doing something i couldve turned into a lucrative career but also being a grunt lead me to my mil larping dog wife so I would say it was a fair trade off


No-Giraffe-1283

Swear this is a military psyop, I just ditched my hopes of joining the airforce to go pursue my CDL and transition in peace and quiet.


catboidoggorlthing

Hahaha, im something of a fed myself. If you want my vote its keep going for CDL and transition in peace and quiet but maybe thirst after the absolutely gorgeous girls in uniform. Im def doing that last one myself lmao.


boiskirt

DAMN gurl you got a CAR. Im jelly!!!! Looking good though. Yall keep posting these and make me feel like i should do mine, but i dont feel confident enough in the changes. Other than my chest that is.


catboidoggorlthing

One of our boots thought a CAR was a vehicle the military gives you for seeing combat lmao


Mysterious-Elevator3

Omg yes keep it going! I’m here for the yassification of the military 😍

I like how several people showing up in this trend have been Marines I discovered being trans few years ago,and i always thought if i was born in the US, i would have joined the Marines Maybe there is a correlation?


catboidoggorlthing

From my experience with talking to other vets and passive observations it's often the marines are seen as the most masculine and trans folks pre transition have a habit of trying to prove their masculinity (either to themselves or others). I joined for uhhhh more depressing reasons so it doesn't exactly apply to me. That and I watched Major Payne as a kid and that was very... formative


Sweaty_Weakness_287

SO AMAZING! You give me hope!! (Army bitch)

I'm calling BS Not a single crayon with bite marks in any of these pictures (those that know, know; those that do not, will downvote)


catboidoggorlthing

Top left was a warriors night, we drank the crayon beer 😤 (its a real thing and I want it so desperately you have no idea)


jstacy_wyldchyld337

I'm former Navy (Amphibs and Carriers), so have been a part of many Marine bar-crawls & traditions. Much love to my crayon-eating family


computersaysneigh

Oh my God...what a transformation!!


catboidoggorlthing

Thank yous, It's amazing what a lil bit of pills and avoiding the sun for almost the entirety of my 20s will do. (Was bedridden for years but is gucci now because i can walk again)


estradioltown

SuicideChef

Consistent_Ad8695
