Graduated Mike Co more than a year ago and I have to say I still have no clue how Drill Instructors do what they do. Hopefully I'll have the opportunity when I get back from Iraq next year.

I love all that "Christian fanatic stuff" at the bottom of my video details...... I also "LOVE" how the liberal left tries to shove "tolerance" down everyone's throat, EXCEPT when others might disagree or believe with them!! And then they do everything they can to muzzle and silence their "opposition".So pardon me while I openly express my religious beliefs, and return the favor of liberal "tolerance" by deleting you ignorant comment. (You know who you are)

Don't worry about being an honor grad. Concentrate on becoming a Marine first and the rest will take of itself. You will learn fast it's not about you anymore. The Marines are just one big TEAM and putting yourself ahead of the TEAM will get you nowhere. Good luck.

How to earn Honor grad: 1. Become Guide- and keep it. 2. Do what you're told. 3. the usual saying: speed, volume, intensity. 4. Try to have the highest PFT/ Rifle score.That's some general stuff. I really don't know for sure b/c the honor grad was in a different platoon than mine. And just to let you know- whoever is guide at the start doesn't mean they're always going to be guide. And if you do become guide- don't be an asshole. Be intense- but don't shit on the other recruits. Good luck.
