After reading about the special forces, my interest in the Marine Corp was slowly diminishing leaving me out of place, but don't get me wrong, I still gave my 100% in the Marines. I have been talking to a recruiter and been doing research. I will be signing up for the 18x after i finish college and am excited, motivated, and nervous currently following warrior mentor program... there are nights when i can not sleep thinking about the special forces and their missions, FID, Counter Terrorism, Unconventional Warfare, Direct Action, and Special Reconnaissance.

I wish my brother would also see the light...There's something about those Marine O's that I don't really understand...and don't like.
