im going to paris island from what i understand. the biggest thing is i have asthma and i have to try and condition my lungs within the max of a year to be able to run without the need of an inhaler. I'm praying that by now its just in my head and the inhaler is a crutch i've been used to |

Congrats on the enlistment. Its a big step in anyones life to join the military. Especially in these trying times, my hat is off to you sir. The Marines are a good choice, I started my military career there, and am currently a Drill Sergeant in the Army. Make the best of it and enjoy. Do what your DI's say without question or fail and you will do just fine, and try to be in some sort of shape before you arrive to Boot Camp, it will make it a little less painful. |
