Marine Corps

To become a marine you will have to pass the IST (Initial Strength Test). The IST is a shortened version of the USMC PFT. A recruit only has to do pull-ups, sit-ups, and a 1.5 mile run. To pass this test you will have to do

- 2 Pull Ups

- 35 Sit Ups (2 minutes)
- 1.5 Mile Run - 13:30
They will also have to sprint a timed 880 yards, lift a 30-pound ammunition can overhead from shoulder height repeatedly for two minutes, and perform a maneuver-under-fire event, which is a timed 300-yard shuttle run in which Marines are paired up by size and perform a series of combat-related tasks.

"Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act accordingly."
This is a good quote because it is saying to ask yourself before you do something. Is it a right thing to do or is it a bad thing to do. Then once you have thought about it clearly you do whats right. Its like when they say to think before you speak becasue its the samething. You need to think about it and then act. Most of the time you will get in trouble because you simply dont think about what you are going to  do first.

"Associate yourself with men of good quality of you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company."
This is a good quote because it is saying that the people that you should be hanging out with are the ones who always choose the right.The people you should be staying away from are the ones who do not choose the right. It is better to be all by yourself at home than to hang out with people who are just going to be a bad influence on you. Dont hang out with non-CTR people because they will never be there for you.

"Right is right only when entire."
This is a very true quote because it is saying that it can only be right if you do what's right entirely. For example, if i find a bag of money and i return it to the rightful owner but i take some of the money that was inside it still makes me a bad person. Although i returned the bag, i am taking soemthing that is not mine. The only way to be right is only when it is entirely right.

"If you do whats right, if you live the right way, you'll be taking care of."
This is a good quote because it is true. If you the right thing and live the right way your not going to worry about anything. Rachel was working at a miami golf course when all of a sudden a customer alerted her about an unatended bag that was sitting on the bench. She walked over to it and opened it. Rachel then saw that the bag was full of packs of money. The bag was carrying 36,000 dollars. She took the bag to her boss and the right away called the police. Inside that bag was more money than what she would make in a year but her actions were worth more than the value of that money. Rachel did not get rewarded but her actions were going to reward her.
