You Marine wannabes may have heard of this acronym and believe me somebody in the USMC will hit you with this for either stupid giggles or a meritorious promotion board.

Deep down if you think about what it stands for you will be a good Marine and a good guy when you come back to the real world.

Which wannabe knows the acronymn? Purple Heart up for grabs!

Ok, I will admit I had to look it up, but that is pretty cool.

In the Army it is LDRSHIP.

EDIT: Heh...Buffalo beat me to it.

This place is starting to get better I tell ya! It's getting to feel like it's my old comm shed on Camp Foster.

BTW, I don't remember that acronym from when I went through Hollywood or on any of my active time (I was drunk half the time). I heard about though.... When did it come about?

I never heard it from '79 to '83. Matter of fact, I only heard of it in the last year or so, either at the SB or EGA.

I had a "GUIDEBOOK FOR MARINES" when I went through boot and active duty. Are you talking about the Essential Subjects books that came out later?
