Almost Done!
 
As some of you know, I was down at Camp Pendleton Ca, at the USMC Staff Academy Career Course. I'm almost done! I go back this afternoon, Tomorrow I check out and Tuesday I graduate. It was nuts not being able to post things except on the weekend! But, I was still thinking about everyone! I took the following pictures to share with everyone. I know they're NOT GI Joe, but they are military themed, and I thought for those of you with no military background, you'd like see what a base looks like!

I Love the Corps, because when we kick your @$$, we bring your toys back as trophy's to sport on our bases! LOL!!

This is "Old Smokey" also known as Mt Mother F**ker! While at School of Infantry or Marine Combat Training, Marines hike up this carrying full combat gear!






This is why they call her Old Smokey....when the clouds come over it looks like smoke! LOL!!

And here's the young men who train to send bad guys packing!

The mission of a Marine Corps rifle squad is to locate, close with and destroy the enemy by fire and maneuver and repel the enemy's assault by fire and close combat.






And we lead them into battle, Marine Staff Non Commissioned Officers, shown here preparing a Company level Offensive operation order.




Hope you enjoyed the pics. Wish I had more, but I did have to study to pass the course!

Well, if the Canadian gov't says no to me joining, I'm calling the marines

T-80 and BMP's russian made at first. Am I right? My second thought is: I like the digital comuflage.

Those are some really great looking pic's Frank!! Thanks for the visuals-CARRY ON!! ;)

Heh heh, those stupid bad guys should have known better than to front up in inferior Russian armour against the might of the USMC! Serves 'em right for being so dumb!
As a lifelong military junkie, I have always loved stuff like this. These pics are awesome. Thanks Frank!!! :)

Thanks for sharing the pics.
 
Hey Frank,
thanks for sharing these pics.. I suppose when you go elsewhere as USMC and take the fight to the bad guys you wanna bring something home with you to show of your efforts .. nothing wrong with trophy hunting.. and they make for good pics too!

You don't have any of the transport and or helicopters do you? :o OMG here I go with my requests.. see what you started now..?
:p

Hey I've been there! Frank have you ever been to Quantico or Henderson Hall.
