If there are any former marines on this site (doubt there are), I'm really thinking about joining the marines and I just wanted to know what you thought about it when you served your time.

There are plenty of ex-servicemen on this website, don't be so quick to judge.

Some advice though, if you don't find the answers you want on here, do not talk to recruiters.

I don't doubt there are some ex-servicemen out there but I figure a fairly high % of the dudes who say they are in fact are just some dudes who watch a lot of history and discovery channel.

Not that it matters...don't ever join the Navy. My friend did and he said all he has been doing ever since he got there is cleaning toilets.

Best example - kid who recently said he was a Marine Sniper with a Distinguished Flying Cross, amongst other glaring impossibilities...

When joining the military check out the MOS that best interests you....and the places you can be stationed....signing bonuses etc. Everyone has a difference experience with the military...no matter the branch. Some will have liked it, some hated it, and some endured it. Asking about someone else's experience won't be much help to you.
