If Sniper can get his knee fixed, is still can!!.. I ran long distance for 5 yrs prior to enlisting and had several cartlidge tears in both knees, Physio and exercise got me back on track and I steam rolled through training with one minor incident on my knee... 3 days LD and was back in the game...
Snips, if theres a will, theres a heinekin... keep on believin Devildog!!..

Along with the army doing new testing on camo the MULTICAM dosent look too bad but nowadays its getting crazy with the USAF tigerstripe and im not even gonna go into the crazy USN Blue digital granted it looks sick wont help much unless your hiding in the ocean.

bangbang, you make a good point about the blue cammos, maybe they can stalk stingrays and have more success then Steve Irwin, Crocodile Hunter!!.... 
Everybody incountry should have same cammos, different cammis gives enemy easy ID of branches serving in areas, they can glean huge info from it..... Whos who... roles, etc.... and a good sniper can possibly cripple FOBs with this info alone.. EVERYBODY should look the same....

Sounds good, buddy. Unfortunately, with the Corps having a suddenly large pool of applicants, they can pick and choose who they send to OCS.
I've talked to four recruiters and three OSOs.
I guess I'll just be the taxi service haha. Nothing wrong with your Navy, Glenn. I'm going to be a member too.
I want to serve first, Marine second. The desire is still strong so I'll go a different route. It's just a disappointment, not a disaster. Though my mother is thrilled about the Corps not taking me back haha.
