Marine Corps – What do you mean there’s a “method to the madness”? You mean to tell me a drill instructor’s entire existence isn’t to break you without regard for how to feel?

Tail on the Trail

Army - As much as you may hate your drill sergeant, you don’t kick a man while he’s down. Especially when that man owns you for 10 weeks. Sometimes, you hook him up. Maybe, just maybe, he’ll hook you up.

Flawless

Marine Corps - If you’re flawless, then wtf is the drill instructor’s purpose? You think they’re just going to sit there and let you bask in perfection. No. They will break you. It’s only a matter of time.

Semper Frail

Marine Corps – If a recruit wants it bad enough and they trust their Drill Instructor, they’ll graduate and become a Marine. But Drill Instructors won’t let the unmotivated and weak graduate. And if given the opportunity to protect the Corps, they might fantasize about dealing with it in their own way.
