My veteran got medals and one was good conduct medal.He got that from not doing something that would get him in trouble in the military.Another one was that he got a National defence and he got that medal from going to Iraq.His boot camp experiences was at Pears island and he said it was dangerous and had a lot of sacrificing times.He wanted to serve in the Marines because he wanted serve his country.
Also a reason he joined is because he wanted a challenge.My veteran does remember his instructers.He said that they were mean,scream and they would yell. My uncle got through boot camp through a lot of hard work and do or die moments.
He joined the branch he was in the Marines because “It is the best branch.’’
When he got there he was terrified and he was regretting what he chose. His job in the military was the legal department. One of his challenges was a new life style.One of his memorable experiences was all the friends he had and some he still has.Another one of his memorable experieces was that he went to the military.My veteran did not see combat because at the time he went to the military there was no combat or wars happining. My veteran wants people to know the time he served that he is a great person and a great
Mariane.
He stayed in touch with his family by phone calls,emails,and letters. My uncle said the food was good and bad at times.The only ways he could entertain themselves was by playing video games and would play volleyball.The sacrifices he made to serve in the military was to believe in his family. What he did on leave was to visit family.His humorous or his unusual events were to feel earthquakes in California. Some pranks that they did was when they got new marians they would tell them to go get the keys for the hummer but the hummer did not have keys they had switches instead of the keys. My veterans biggest accomplishments was to get through boot camp and forever to be a marine. My uncle steve did not keep a journal or a diary while he was a marine. After he was in the marines he did go back to work at a factory named Dana.
In Conclusion his advice for me is to stay in school and get my education and to have respect for others and also to treat others the way I want to be treated.While he was a marine he said that he became a better person then he was before he was in the Marines. He still talks to some of his friends what he had in the military.When he ended his military life he worked at Dana and was a test technician.My uncle was treated in the military like a normal person would be treated. He had many close friendships while he was in the military. I am glad for what my uncle did while he was in the military.
