[edit]Boot Camp
[edit]On October 23rd 2006 I was successfully enlisted in the USMC and began training at Parris Island SC. At the time I was overweight approx 210 - 220 lbs 90 of which was all fat. I had no muscle to speak of and as such was sent directly to PCP (Physical Conditioning Platoon). After three months of difficult labor and work I had earned the privilage to go to actual training. From there I was sent to Echo Company Plt 2030 where I completed the bulk of my training. for a time everything was going alright up until 3rd phase where I endured a serious sprain to my right ankle on the crucible Hike. I was sent to MRP (Medical Rehabilitation Platoon) for a month. From there I worked to get my ankle back in top condition. After passing a PFT I was sent back into training where I was picked up by plt 2036 Fox Company. I completed my training and graduated with the rank of Private First Class.
