    Define, "quickly."

    I'm sure though that if I have to ask that, it's not fast enough.

    Well if it takes you 10 mins to sew on a button then that is not quick, so many people will give you weird and wonderful advice but it is simple shit like being good at sewing and ironing that will make your life much easier. And seriously learn all the ranks from every branch, never get caught out if you don't want to be beasted.

    OOO RA! First things first - thank you for stepping up and offering to defend our freedoms. I know it sounds corny, but this guy appreciates it.


    My brother and one of my cousins were both Marines. (I was jealous - they didn't want me.) They both told me it's a tough road unless you're determined. Be determined!

    Learn to shower and shave fast. Learn to like outdoor exercise. Be thankful it's October and not summer. SC or SD?

    Man if it takes you 10 minutes to so on a button you're not sewing on a button you're making a new pair of pants.
