Congratulations! I thought the worst part of the course was listening to other students talk about high school and boot camp all day long.
My favorite question at BRC was, "Sir, how many chicks did you bang/touchdowns did you score/varsity sports did you play in high school?"
The kids going through MART are pretty much retarded. I could go on for quite some time pertaining to all of the stupid questions they had. For some reason MART guys were extremely keen on asking the instructors their stupid questions as well.

Congratulations.
Thank you
A lot of pfc's in your class?
Pretty much everyone who came from MART were PFC's with a few LCpl's.
Jeez, I thought BRC would be populated with NCO's. Do any guys go straight to Force out of BRC?
Not normally unless they are from the fleet. My understanding is that most lat movers don't go to MART.
I think you should post the questions so we can enjoy the rest of the week.
My dive buddy at Marine Combatant Dive was straight out of the pipeline and was 19 years old. One morning I heard him humming the Marines hymn (at zero dark thirty) in formation as we walked to class for a day of thrashing and drowning. He was so motivated and full of energy at 0400 that he was humming his service song. I told him he was not allowed to march next to me anymore and banished him to the end of the gaggle.
We had a reservist Major in my class who renamed his dive team something funny so my PFC buddy wanted to change our name from "team 5" to "team velociraptor". Yet another veto from the senior dive buddy.
Did he make it?
He did actually. He was a really solid Marine. His excessive motivation annoyed me but that's what you want from a young stud. He did so well the class leader made him the "senior PFC" and he had to herd all the PFC cats and dogs for the class.
Those young guys that just can't be repressed have always been fun to have around. The ones where no matter how bad shit gets, they've always got a smile on their face and a smart comment to pass around.
Glad he made it.
Senior PFC.
