A Farm Child Joins the Marines Expensive Ma and Pa, I’m nicely. Hope you’re. Inform Brother Walt and Brother Elmer the Marine Corps beats working for outdated man Minch by a mile. Inform them to affix up fast earlier than all the locations are crammed. I used to be stressed at first since you get to remain in mattress until almost 5 a.m. However I get so I wish to sleep late. Inform Walt and Elmer all you do earlier than breakfast is clean your cot, and shine some issues. No hogs to slop, feed to pitch, mash to combine, wooden to separate, fireplace to put. Virtually nothing.Males obtained to shave however it isn’t so unhealthy, there’s heat water. Breakfast is robust on trimmings like fruit juice, cereal, eggs, bacon, and so forth., however type of weak on chops, potatoes, ham, steak, fried eggplant, pie and different common meals, however inform Walt and Elmer you may at all times sit by the 2 metropolis boys that dwell on espresso. Their meals, plus yours, holds you till midday once you get fed once more. It’s no surprise these metropolis boys can’t stroll a lot.
We go on “route marches,” which the platoon sergeant says are lengthy walks to harden us. If he thinks so, it’s not my place to inform him completely different. A “route march” is about so far as to our mailbox at residence. Then the town guys get sore ft and all of us journey again in vans.
The sergeant is sort of a college trainer. He nags so much. The Captain is like the varsity board. Majors and colonels simply journey round and frown. They don’t trouble you none. This subsequent will kill Walt and Elmer with laughing. I preserve getting medals for capturing. I don’t know why. The bulls-eye is close to as large as a chipmunk head and don’t transfer, and it ain’t capturing at you just like the Higgett boys at residence. All you bought to do is lie there all comfy and hit it. You don’t even load your individual cartridges. They arrive in containers.Then now we have what they name hand-to-hand fight coaching. You get to wrestle with them metropolis boys. I’ve to be actual cautious although, they break actual straightforward. It ain’t like preventing with that ole bull at residence. I’m about the most effective they obtained on this apart from that Tug Jordan from over in Silver Lake . I solely beat him as soon as. He joined up the identical time as me, however I’m solely 5’6″ and 130 kilos and he’s 6’8″ and close to 300 kilos dry.
Be sure you inform Walt and Elmer to rush and be a part of earlier than different fellers get onto this setup and are available stampeding in.
