Ft. Jackson is about 40 minutes away from here.

Maybe not an entirely bad move, considering that those long runs were killing off quite a few trainees.

I think it's awesome! 30 years ago, men were different than the men of today. So are the battlefields. I especially liked that they are doing this sparring shit. I firmly believe that most young men these days have never been punched in the face. If you've never been, it's quite a shot and the last place you want to be taken by surprise is in combat!

I'm a 20 year old Marine Poolee ,and also from the great state of Mississippi from a town of about 1200 People. I went to K5 - 12 Grade with the same 20 classmates, there isn't one of them I haven't hit at least twice ,and not a one of them who hasn't thrown me a beating of some sort. So that's one thing the Corps. can insure they get when I graduate boot camp.. An individual who knows how it feels to get hit directly in the nose on a cold day outside the cafeteria while talking to a chick. Anything goes in Mississippi.
