Marine here. You can't get tendies in boot camp. However Pendleton has a McDonald's and a Jack in the Box on base. Lejune has a Burger King. You can get tendies at the Bowling alley at MCAS Yuma too. Once deployed the chow hall may have chicken nuggets but not tendies. You'll have to ruff it a little. If you get the hotdogs MRE... Don't eat the hotdogs.
Also Divvy, not a Marine myself but Semper Fi and thank you for your service. And is it true there's an MRE with a brownie (or something) that is basically worth its weight in gold in a trade? Heard of that before, was curious.
Yeah I had it rough in the Air Force a few times. Like one time, deployed, they had us stay in 3 star hotel and we had to double up in rooms! And the guy I was shacked up with wasn't even gay, and the mini bar fridge broke.
I showed my son videos of Receiving Week, and he asks why the DIs mistreat the boys so badly? He’s seven, mind you and he looked appalled. I says ”Son Marines need to go through this type of training because they cannot read or write this is the only way they can live now.” lol he and I laughed it off but I later explained that these DI’s need to break these young men and women down in order to build them up into the most deadly US Marine that they can be they demand the best. My son had a glean in his eye and said I “I love our military.” God bless you guys.
Marine Corps is the best gun club, but it always depends on your MOS/contract you choose. A cook in the USMC usually won’t touch a weapon as part of their job while security forces in the Chair Force will be handling weapons daily
Marine Corps.
Then you get a gun and all the crayons you can eat.

You'll have to bring it up to your drill sergeant. I was Air Force, "tendies" were considered low class.

LOL
Where's the crayon eating thing come from? 😂
Everyone knows the Marines eat crayons. This is a fact. Twitter doesn't even dispute it.
And when they do finally dispute it, you’ll really know it’s true
Was Okinawa his girlfriend, or the island?
Yeah, I've been wondering that too. Lots of things to learn from TD.
they will brag about it.
