"nobody in the marine corps makes it past 25 "
True more importanly once a person reaches that age they question blind stupidity which is Bascially all things Marine Corps.
Gullibility,Blind allegiance, unwavering loyalty to a values& belief system that is contradictory and hypcritcal in its very design.

Both the Marines and Army have had recruitment woes however the Army just doesnt have the attractiveness like the Marines have.
For the Marines...... Their Advertised campaigns sends out a message of "We dare you." While every other service's ads show how you can get some education and benefits. The Marines' advertise PRIDE.
Basically put - They don't flower it up and try to hide what they are truly about.
HOw many Army commercials have you seen where they talk about Army Pride? of being a Soldier?
I think it has a lot to do with the Marines just being Honest in their advertising.

you come again for the era of as very ignorant. The warfare on terror is something that the government is combating on behalf of all human beings and our national pastimes. people who serve in the militia gain this on their very own loose will. they are all volunteers and the final public of them are proud to serve their united states, preserve our freedoms and make the international extra risk-free for all human beings. possibly you should volunteer and sacrafice on your united states with the intention to celebrate with what they are doing and how they sense approximately their sacrafices. God Bless united statesa.

I am more curious as to what the draft age cut-off will be

probably because the marines is more physically demanding and they need bucking young men.
