  1. As of 2000 and present!

    That depends on how long he is in the 'Receiving Barracks".  Usually that can last to 1-day to 2-weeks!  But once he is introduced to his 'training platoon'.  That is when 'Training Day 1'  (T-1) commences; configure 14-weeks (last week is graduation week, that week does not count!) from T-1.  There are many situations that may abrupt the usual schedule of 14-weeks:

    If he is a 'Fat Body', he will go to the 'Fat Platoon'.  Since each and every recruit are faced again with a scale and a physical evaluation; regardless if they had one in MEPS or not.  MEPS is made up of joint-service with only 'one' prerequisite.  The Marine Corps fixes that!  They will be bumped-out of his Training Platoon to be placed in a platoon consisting of other overweight recruits.  But this will only p**s off the DIs within the Fat Platoon because, these recruits were supposed to be within range of the weight requirement in the first place!

    But if he sustained injuries while with the Training Platoon, he/she will be placed in the 'Broken Platoon'; technically called Medical Platoon.  But you'll never hear them call it 'medical', but Broken!  They will remain here as long as their enlistment is up, until they heal; up to 2-years.  (This must suck if you have to sustain 2-years of Marine Corps Boot Camp)

    And there is the Motivation Platoon.  This is for the recruits that just cannot get it together.  Either they are the most ignorant recruits, trouble-makers, or the wimpy ones!  This Moto Plt will make sure that they are motivated and physically/mentally strong to continue in their training.

    Once these recruits are deemed fit for duty, they will have to continue their training in a platoon that is on the day they were taken out from the previous platoon.  For example, if a recruit that was pulled out on T-25, he/she will be placed into a Training Platoon that is on T-24.

    But, if they could not make it in this new Training Platoon, they are to go back home to mommy and daddy!


  2. not to get you down but when he does he's going to Afghanistan

  3. if he goes through training uninjured then it will be 13 weeks. he will arrive on a monday and he will graduate on the friday of his 13th week.

  4. 13 weeks from the day he arrives at basic
