If the Marines keep soliciting your services (and soul) you can always inquire about the buddy plan for yourself and same sex lover..... In the
sixties the only ways out were confessing to mass murders, drug use, homosexuality, around the clock masturbation, and very convincing suicide
attempts..... In cases of the latter, if caught in the process the Drill Instructors would assist you by at least telling you how to complete the
task. Some guys got lucky and were crippled before they got out of Boot Camp but even some of them ended up on the D.M.Z. for thirteen months
anyway.... As a highly decorated Korean War Marine veteran told me after I had enlisted, " You will never be the same, and that doesn't mean that
the change will be for the better".... If a Marine returning from Vietnam had less than six months left on his enlistment, he was released from
active duty. ... The only people that would hire pissed off highly skilled killing machines were police departments, and not many of them I knew could
even adjust to that type of work in a big city.... Some Marine Corps. officers and senior N.C.O.s did well in that field though in state law
enforcement, where they were moved around from place to place.
