Another thing-to get a comission in the Marines you must have a college degree. To get to the rank of captain, you must go to grad school. To get to COl. you have to either have, or start to achieve PHD. This guy has been to more schooling than a majority of you.

third--to be a Marine officer past the rank of captain you have to be reccomended by all the officers in your same company (both higher and lower) to get promoted-so obviously he knows what he is doing.

Where the hell did you get this information. You're telling me that Marine Corps Captains and above all have advanced degrees? ...and their colonels are PHDs? I find this hard to believe. No disrespect to the Jarheads who frequent this forum.

My dad is a retired officer of the Army and they had no such requirements.
