    Overall, I enjoyed my time! The camaraderie and travel opportunities are unlike any offered anywhere else. The GI Bill and other benefits offered are very unique. My only complaints are the occasionally poor leadership, and rough working hours, but its nothing that wouldn't be expected.

    As a United States Marine you get what you signed up for...for the most part. The comraderie is there, the professionalism is there, the benefits are there. There will always be those who do not uphold the high standard but for the most part it’s a blessing to be a part of such a phenomenal institution!
    Overall, I would never regret the decision to enlist. I've been able to learn a wide variety of skills, see a complete different side of the world, and interact with people whose opinions and backgrounds are starkly different from my own. Because of a mandatory level of workplace transparency, I understand what it takes to unite a group of young men and women together in order to accomplish a mission. And while it my not always be picture perfect, you will excel because you understand that you have both the weight of your country and fellow service members to hold, but you also have their support.
